mias-151-386599 THE SOUNDING won the 2017 Arizona International Film Festival Grand Prize for a reason. It is rare for a film to move audiences as much as THE SOUNDING did.Catherine Eaton is the Director, Co-Writer, and Star of THE SOUNDING. This combo can be a problem but this triple play enhanced the film. I can't imagine anyone else in those roles.People were talking about it for days. It has been a while since a film grabbed an audience like that.If THE SOUNDING screens anywhere near you, SEE IT!!!

david-01872 The Sounding is the kind of film you see every few years that comes out of the indie circuit and rekindles your belief in storytelling and the power of human connections. Beautifully shot, acted, and realized. These are filmmaker we'll hear from in the future. And Catherine Eaton is already a movie star.

kle23 This is a gorgeously made film about a woman determined to live her truth. Compelling and nuanced performances, stunning cinematography, and a brilliant premise. Asks important questions about difference and our culture's determination to "heal" or "fix" behaviors outside the norm. PS: Even if you've never liked Shakespeare, you'll love this film.

pfrey-22512 The beauty of this film is it's ability to viscerally illuminate the struggles and triumphs we all encounter, at one point or another, to communicate. It touches deeply on how fragile and sublime life is. The story arc traces how difficult it can be to be clear about one's intentions, 'words' and actions, and how when we are not so clear, it can cause harm, despite our good intentions. Eaton's grounding in the Dharma becomes evident through her gentle yet strong performance as well as the film's allegiance to the core truth that all being's inherent qualities are kind and compassionate, even though we may be temporarily covered in a dirty cloth.
