About this project
A lot of new things are happening in the world. Our consciousness is expanding and people are talking more and more about things like spirituality and the care for our planet. Commercials use our new sensitivity about the environment, books like The Secret are very popular and even Oprah talks with spiritual leaders on her show. More and more people start to believe that everything is connected and that we have an influence on what our life and the planet looks like. “Be the change you want to see in the world,” Mahatma Gandhi said. And by saying so he also pointed at that difficulty, in which we first should dare to look at our own dark side, before we will be able to face our collective dark sides as war, hunger and the imbalanced wealth in the world.
We, the founder of Shekinah and the screenwriter, noticed that no one has made a film about this subject before. There were documentaries about global warming and the law of attraction, but no inspirational feature film about our expanding consciousness, what is possible for the world and that difficult part, to look at your own darkness, was made. With the script of From the Heart of the Labyrinth, we believe to have written an exciting psychological drama, which will be a source of inspiration as bring you a nice evening of entertainment as well. It’s our contribution to the change we want to see in the world.
We are Dutch. But because the story takes place in France (Chartres) and because we hope to reach an international audience the script is written in English.
Who we are
We, Karin Koetsveld, screenwriter, and Krijn Koetsveld, Shekinah master, share our surname because we are father (Krijn) and daughter (Karin). In the past we engaged in literary events together. But this film is our first professional collaboration, which suits us well. Krijn's work, particularly with the Shekinah energy, forms the starting point and background for the story and led to the idea to make it into a feature film. Karin is responsible for the script.
More information about us, in Dutch, can be found on: www.versa-teksten.nl (Karin). Or click on the Shekinah or Cobos logo at the top of this page (Krijn).
The narrative
When Heery hears that his mother is dying he doesn’t want to visit her because she is living with his twin brother Cras. Heery thinks Cras always has been his mothers favorite son and on top of that Cras married the love of Heery’s life: Rodith. Because there’s still a spark of hope he might win Rodith back, Heery decides to go to Chartres. That Rodith still has feelings for Heery too, seems to be confirmed there. But the death of his mother and an exceptional experience on the labyrinth in the cathedral turn his view on life around in a way he could have never imagined.
Two students of Cras play an important role in Heery’s labyrinth experience. Because of this they decide to make their living out of guiding people down the path of the labyrinth. At the end of the film they open their practice, called: Labyrinth Path. That’s where the name of this website, www.labyrinthpath.eu, originates.

Help us to create this film
The script is nearly finished, but a script alone doesn’t make a feature film: you need all the hundreds of people you see in the credits of almost every film. Right now we are looking for all those people, in particular for a producer (or more), a director, and financiers/sponsors. So if you know someone who makes feature film credits on a regular basis, who might be interested in From the Heart of the Labyrinth, please bring this script to their attention. Maybe by sending them an original From the Heart of the Labyrinth postcard! E-mail us your personal message and the address you want to send the card to at info@versa-teksten.nl and we will send the card in your name for free! You can send in your request for an empty card by e-mailing your postal address to the same e-mail address. The cards are available in English as well as in Dutch.
