WINNER OF “BEST DOCUMENTARY FILM”
SILK FILM FESTIVAL, BELGRADE, SEPT 2024
Susan met Sam Osmanagich, discoverer of the Bosnian pyramids at a conference at Pyramid Valley near Bangalore, India in 2016. After seeing Susan’s film, ‘Circle of Immortality’, Sam invited her to come to Bosnia to make a “movie like that” there.
It proved to be a ‘switching tracks’ moment for Susan’s work on a number of levels, as everything about the Pyramid complex in the Visoko Valley of Bosnia and the avant-garde people that she met there, who are thinking way outside of the box, would not only challenge her to embrace the multi-dimensional vision required to do justice to Sam’s request, but also take her into a world of advanced scientific knowledge.
Visoko Valley of the Bosnian Pyramids
After visiting the Visoko Valley of the Bosnian Pyramids for 3 consecutive years (2017, 2018 and 2019), Susan created two large Photo Collage Art pictures that held the symbols, sequences and time specifications she would need to build her Bosnian film, section by section.
‘Diamond Lens, Doorway to Infinity’
’Crystal of Time’
‘Diamond Lens, Doorway to Infinity’ and ‘Crystal of Time’
‘Diamond Lens, Doorway to Infinity’ fits into the central golden circle that expresses the inner workings of ‘Crystal of Time’.
These 2 pictures comprise two out of the three of Series II of Susan’s Photo Collage Art pieces in which she constructs shapes into whole pictures that have been carefully designed to emanate both a holistic meaning of the relevant theme at large, as well as different dimensional facets of the location where the focus of concentration is taking place.
Herein, using certain rhythms that arise according to the layout of these specially designed Photo Collage Art pictures that are holding key Universal Truths in their geometric layout, shape, colour and theme of photos, she thus seeks to emanate the symbolic meaning of the subject at large, as well as reflect ‘correctly’ designed time sequences as beneficial harmonic frequencies, back to the viewer watching the movie.
This is an example of Susan’s greater artistic genre of work, ‘Kaleidoscopic Filmmaking’ in which she carefully reproduces the symbolic layout of specifically made Photo Collage Art pictures into the structure of a film using the skilful methods available to a filmmaker, in terms of visuals, music, narration and timing.
Thus created through careful examination of the various multi-dimensional facets of the Bosnian Pyramid Complex site and synchronistic occurrences that took place there during the same time period, these two pictures were embedded into the structure of a first version film, ‘Visions of Bosnia’ that was produced in 2020 that Susan purposefully designed to emanate to the viewer what visitors to the pyramids, tumuli, underground tunnels, Ravne Park et environs, both see, understand and feel when they visit this extraordinary place.
‘Tunnel Vision. Eye of Eternity – Picture’
After a long, drawn-out labour between 2020 and 2024, the third Photo Collage Art picture of her Series II, ‘Tunnel Vision, Eye of Eternity’ appeared and with it some prominent additions to the first version of her movie, ‘Visions of Bosnia’.
The name of the film thus evolved into ‘Tunnel Vision, Eye of Eternity – Film’ that Susan premiered at the Summer Solstice Festival held in the Ravne Park, Visoko, in Bosnia, on 21st June 2024.
‘Tunnel Vision, Eye of Eternity – Film’, may be viewed here:
The name, ‘Tunnel Vision, Eye of Eternity’ describes the film’s underlying attempt to unite the meaning of our Relative (Tunnel Vision) and Absolute (Eye of Eternity) Existence, something that is being resonated to us throughout the movie in its purposeful flow of rhythmic interchanges that follow a specific pattern.
Amidst the already established function of both emanating and resonating to the viewer what visitors to the pyramids, tumuli, underground tunnels, Ravne Park et environs, both see, understand and feel when they visit the Bosnian pyramid complex, in this updated version we now find a vortex of movement pushing from the centre outwards in waves pulsating across a medium where the visuals gather in crests and troughs as if moving within a surface.
Here, thirteen concentric circles pulsate out from the central point of her already methodically laid out movie, back to its start and forwards to its end, using the correct spatial measurements of the cube root of Pi that as described by Les Brown in his magnificent documentary of 1978, ‘The Physics of Crystals’ (You Tube), defines the increasing distance between rippling circles.
Graph of Harmonics of the Timeline of the film
Resulting in this latest edition of the movie being infused with a pulsation of universal energy that appears everywhere, immediately, here the sound of ‘AUM’ resounds – 1 in the centre and 12 on either side of it, making 25 AUMs in total – providing an ‘Absolute’ framework within which the entire Relative wave form of the movie that she’d already cut up and edited may reside.
Premiered in the Ravne Park, Visoko on 21st June 2024, this final version of Susan’s more than 7-year project to create a ‘Kaleidoscopic film’ about the Bosnian Pyramids, ‘Tunnel Vision, Eye of Eternity – FILM’ was chosen as one of the Official Winners of SILKFEST Film Festival 2024, Belgrade, Serbia.

Susan describes the meaning of Tunnel Vision, Eye of Eternity and film showing at University of Belgrade, September 7th 2024
Quotes from several people who have seen the movie:
Thank you for the wonderful full length documentary movie about the pyramids, tunnels, Bosnia and people who gravitate to the energy of the place.
I see circles, they turn into the spiral, which transforms to energy vortex (like DNA strains), with no chronology but all events from future and past coming to one point.
Sound dances independently from video, mixing the words, music, movements, steps, songs, nature, water flow, smiles… conquering all our senses and penetrating deep inside.
Faces we know and we don’t, those who’re with us and no longer with but above us, roses and grass, objects, mountains, sky, statements from known and unknown, vortex of life.
It’s unique. It’s different. It’s artistic. It’s creative. It’s spiritual. It brings smiles, laughs and tears. It’s about one family. We’re light.
I wish I’m there. Wait, what am I saying, I go there every day. I just need everyone else.
Congratulation, Susan
Sam Osmanagich

If I was a professional movie critic, this is what I would say:
With this movie Susan has made a masterpiece, she has managed to weave together the magic, the love, the science, the human experience and the multi-dimensional levels of consciousness that you find in these areas of Bosnia. Moving us deep into our hearts as we watch the dance of joy filled expressions and heartfelt togetherness…just as a True New Organic World is meant to be.
Susan, thank you, I so loved it, I was crying, laughing, had goose bumps…. it brought me straight into the truest part of my heart…
The way you weave together the trueness of life. The science and the experience of something more, the true beauty of expressing our humanness and soul, the spiral of life…
The entire energy in the movie is that of utter pure love, such a sacred moment to be allowed to watch and feel….
What can I say.. I just loved it…its the best movie from that area I have seen, as you managed to capture the true magic, what we really feel when there…
And now I just wanna jump on the first plane and go back…
