Introducing

The film is set in Loas and Zanzibar and is meant to be an experimental documentary that uses fiction to depict a transcendental experience. It won the Special Jury Award at the Encounters section of the 2023 Berlinale.

Synopsis

Every morning, a Buddhist teenager visits an elderly woman’s home to read her The Tibetan Book of the Dead; a guide for the journey between death and the next rebirth. On her last day, the young man whispers the book’s final passages in her ear, closes his eyes, and meditates alongside her, as she embarks on a transformative journey into what lies beyond.

In a hectic world of chaos and crisis,
Samsara offers a glorious solution: close your eyes to truly open them.
Time Out
Unlike anything else you will experience in the cinema.
