Bilge Ebiri Spirituality & Health It's not always easy to follow the story thread of this beguiling film, but it has such a bewitching atmosphere that you may well be tempted to watch it over and over again. Jul 13, 2021 Full Review Christy Lemire FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) It's quite beautiful. The director, Khyentse Norbu, will hold a shot for a long time and let you luxuriate in the setting. Apr 13, 2021 Full Review Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times Recruiting a cast comprised of genuine nonprofessionals and the talents of Taiwanese cinematographer Mark Lee-Ping Bing... Norbu charts an inspired, fittingly meditative journey to enlightenment. Apr 9, 2021 Full Review Andrew Heskins easternKicks.com A slight if likeable work from filmmaker and lama Khyentse Norbu Rated: 3/5 Dec 3, 2021 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews I loved the dreamy film for not watering things down and letting the viewer identify with the protagonist trying to save his life the old-fashioned Buddhist way. Rated: A- May 1, 2021 Full Review Kelly Vance East Bay Express This remarkable film from Nepal is just as agreeably enigmatic as its label would suggest-a combination ethnographic/spiritual/wryly comic "quest" tale about living in the present, and how difficult that can be.

Audience Member Fell asleep many times because it was so safe to fall asleep. Watched twice, the sense of beauty, love for Nepal, and beyond was evident throughout. One needs time and mental space to immerse in this spiritual treat. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
