Saturday Film Night: Amongst White Clouds & Brilliant Moon

Saturday 5th November, 7:30 pm $18/$15 Conc. including refreshments.

Amongst white Clouds (86 min) An intimate insider's look at the reclusive Buddhist masters living in scattered retreats dotting China's Zhongnan mountain range. These peaks have reputedly been home to reclusive monks since the time of the Yellow Emperor, some five thousand years ago. It was widely thought that the tradition was all but wiped out, but this remarkable film emphatically and beautifully shows otherwise.

Brilliant Moon (58 min) This wonderful film chronicles the life of the great Nyingma master Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, one of Tibet's most revered twentieth century Buddhist teachers. His life and teachings were an inspiration to all who encountered him, and his many students included the Dalai Lama and the Royal family of Bhutan, as well as masters from the other schools of Tibetan Buddhism. Narrated by Richard Gere and Lou Reed
