Inward Bound Documentary
Anyone who was at Inward Bound probably remembers Matt Giovenetti and Doug Friedlander running around like maniacs with a camera and microphone trying to capture "what was happening." On the last day, they presented the fruits of their labors - a 12 minute documentary film of Inward Bound - to everyone in attendance at the last session.

Keynote Address
August Turak's multi-media keynote address wove clips from American Beauty, Apocalypse Now, Fight Club, and The Matrix to both serve as inspiration heading into Inward Bound and to give people a taste of what to expect. From his story about the boy locked in the freezer to the scene from American beauty, from the "still small voice" to "intimacy and intensity," from courage and trust to transcending self-absorption, he touched on many of the essential aspects of the spiritual life.
