About
Souls of Zen full movie is released on Mar 06, 2013. Watch Souls of Zen online - the Japanese Documentary movie from Germany. Souls of Zen is directed by Tim Graf,Jakob Montrasio and created by Tim Graf with Tomonori Abe and The Dalai Lama.
This documentary presents perspectives on Buddhism as practiced by clergy and millions of families in Japan today by drawing on ethnographic fieldwork about prayer practice and mortuary rituals "on the ground". "Souls" of Zen thereby refers to one of Japan's most enduring traditions - the commemoration of ancestral spirits. We visit rural graveyards, urban temples, modern funeral halls, and public events to trace the rapid change this tradition is undergoing in the last decades and, most recently, in the wake of the tsunami.
