Birthing Humanity is a leading-edge concept in the world of film-making. Our mission is to revolutionize the film industry by transforming the very essence of movie production.
Our film project is not just about telling a story but about redefining the very process of storytelling. We take a unique approach, inspired by the profound book ‘Legends of Creation: A Father’s Role in Pregnancy, A Mother’s Journey in Becoming,’ by our Director, Joseph Jacques. This book, which sets the tone for our film, is a powerful exploration of the conscious decision our protagonists make to start a family prior to conception. It emphasizes the importance of healing all handed-down trauma while acknowledging and nurturing the genius ready to spring into new life. With forewords by Dr. Jean Houston and Dr. Bruce Lipton, pioneers in the fields of Human Potential and Epigenetics, this book offers insights that are profoundly significant for the world. Dr. Houston and Dr. Lipton’s involvement underscores the transformative power of our project as we integrate a cutting-edge understanding of human development and potential into our narrative. By blending these groundbreaking concepts, we seek to create a cinematic experience that deeply impacts both the audience and the future of film-making.

BIRTHING HUMANITY
Genre: Drama / Inspirational / Transformational
Log-line: Amid societal decay, Emma and Jake tackle their family traumas, pioneering an era of genius and healing. As they plan for their first child, their journey reshapes storytelling, making “Birthing Humanity” a cinematic beacon for change.
Birthing Humanity Overview: Join us as we embark on the ultimate love story and hero’s journey—not just for Emma and Jake, but for a culture in dire need of transformation. “Birthing Humanity” merges the personal quests of Emma, a cognitive neuroscientist, and Jake, a social worker specializing in homeless prenatal care, with a broader societal mission. Together, they seek to heal past traumas and spark a new era of genius and healing, setting a profound example for cultural renewal. This film not only narrates their personal journey to conceive a child in the healthiest environment possible but also lays out a transformative path that our society can follow, akin to “Good Will Hunting” but for society.
Act 1: Introduction “Birthing Humanity” opens with Emma and Jake attending a life-changing seminar hosted by Joseph Jacques, a renowned author of “Legends of Creation” and the creator of “The Healing Project”. The seminar introduces them to the concepts of healing intergenerational trauma and embracing genetic genius, which resonates deeply with both, given their professional backgrounds and personal histories. Emma’s expertise in cognitive neuroscience and Jake’s experiences on the front lines with homeless and traumatized populations have primed them for this moment. Inspired, they decide to apply these teachings not only in their future family but as a blueprint for societal change.
As the narrative unfolds, we dive into Emma and Jake’s pasts, revealing their struggles with familial issues—Emma being ignored throughout her childhood and Jake dealing with an abusive, alcoholic father. These backstories provide a foundation for their deep commitment to altering the legacy they will pass on to their children and their community.
Act 2: Deepening the Narrative The film weaves through their journey of self-discovery and societal contribution. Dr. Emma Love and Jake launch a podcast named “Birthing Humanity,” where they engage with scholars and experts in psychology, trauma, human potential, and community building. Each episode explores different facets of human development, from the womb to societal structures, blending personal storytelling with cutting-edge science.
Emma and Jake use the podcast as a platform to document their progress and challenges, drawing in a worldwide audience captivated by their authenticity and innovative approach. The discussions are rich with insights about the balance of masculine and feminine energies, the importance of nurturing from conception, and the societal impact of healed individuals.
