Big Sky Documentary Film Festival

Welcome Space Brothers is a feature documentary about The Unarius Academy of Science, an extraterrestrial-channeling spiritual school and self-healing community established in the 1970s in El Cajon, California that became a wildly prolific filmmaking collective under the direction of outlandish spiritual leader and filmmaker Ruth E. Norman, AKA “Archangel Uriel.” In this episode of the Big Sky Documentary Film Festival podcast, Ruth Norman, subject of Welcome Space Brothers, stopped by the Trail studios for a unique look at one of the most far-out films at this year's BSDFF.
