 Existence\n\nFilmmaker Roger Nygard ("Trekkies" and "Trekkies II" - the 
 latter of which had a section filmed in Sacramento) made a list of 85 of 
 the toughest questions he could think of, including "Why do we exist" and 
 "Where was God during the holocaust?" and posed these to a vast number of 
 varied people including Indian holy man Sri Sri Ravi Shankar; Irvin 
 Kershner, director of "The Empire Strikes Back;" Italian Catholic 
 Archbishop D’Ambrosio; Leonard Susskind (co-discovered string theory); 
 Rob Adonis (founder of Ultimate Christian Wrestling); 24th Generation 
 Taoist Master Zhang Chengda of China’s Azure Cloud Temple on Taishan; 
 evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins, author of "The God Delusion;" scifi 
 authors Larry Niven and Orson Scott Card; Stonehenge Druids Rollo 
 Maughfling & King Arthur Pendragon; SNL cast member and atheist Julia 
 Sweeney; confrontational evangelist Brother Jed Smock and many, many more! 
 "The Nature of Existence" documents the insights from this massive and 
 varied line-up of interviewees!\n\n“…a witty, thought provoking and 
 often surprising study in the greatest mysteries of life.” - Mark Deming, 
 All Movie Guide\n\n“’Nature’ is defined by its hopeful juxtaposition 
 of clashing ideas on humanity and the cosmos…With co-producer/editor Paul 
 Tarantino, [Roger Nygard] has shaped the well-shot material into a 
 quick-moving piece that abounds in energy.” - Sheri Linden, The Hollywood 
 Reporter\n\n“[It's] a film that is constantly entertaining and thought 
 provoking… ironic, sad, and amazing, but most of all funny. … This is 
 the best documentary I have seen this year.” - Mark R. Leeper, Online 
 Film Critics Society\n\n
