Oprah was just about to sit down for an interview with President Barack Obama when he asked if she had seen a new film—Beasts of the Southern Wild. Watch as Oprah reflects on the president's movie pick and reveals why she wants to share it with the world on "Super Soul Sunday."

Watch Oprah's interview with Beasts of the Southern Wild director Benh Zeitlin and stars Dwight Henry and Quvenzhané Wallis on "Super Soul Sunday" August 26 on OWN. Plus, you can watch from anywhere in the world on Oprah.com, Facebook.com/owntv or Facebook.com/supersoulsunday at 11 a.m. ET/PT.

This Sunday I'll be talking to the cast of BEASTS of THE SOUTHERN WILD. It's filled with levels of inspiration. First of all the story itself. But the daring perseverance it took to get the movie done on a wing, a prayer and a shoestring budget from a 29 year old director who'd never done it before is what I think is so awesome. Behn Zeitlin and his team created brilliance on screen. I remember weeks ago on Super Soul Sunday actor and Soul Pancake creator Rainn Wilson said there is no difference between being creative and being spiritual.
 
This movie hits a real spiritual nerve with 6 year old "Hushpuppy" as the main artery.

Can't say enough about it. That's why I'm doing a whole show on it. Hope you see the movie then watch the people who made it happen on Super Soul Sunday live on OWN and streamed around the world on Facebook and Oprah.com 11a ET/PT.
