This new 2.5 min. REFUGE trailer was produced for a film festival designated for June 2020.
The 60 minute film REFUGE originally began with the vision of Hollywood’s interest in Tibet, the Dalai Lama, and Buddhism.
While in a fundraising process the 9/11 tragedy occurred in Manhattan, New York. The producer writer and myself decided to change the direction of the film in respect of humanity’s thirst for spiritual nourishment in a time of global trauma and loss.
The new film, REFUGE, embraces the solace and welcoming of Buddhism in the west and the spiritual pursuit of westerners approaching Buddhism, a refuge and pilgrimage both east and west.
The filming of REFUGE began in 1989 when my own Lama was enshrined in a stupa in Kathmandu Nepal. A next filming stage occurred in 1997, while I was commissioned by Swiss television to make a short movie on the subject. Continuous filming occurred until 2002, by which time the concept of REFUGE was clear to we filmmakers.
REFUGE takes a courageous approach in challenging its protagonists with very direct questions concerning, for example: sexual and financial exploitation by spiritual authorities, “guru” worship, the concepts of ego, identity, interconnectivity and social engagement.
While some goals were accomplished in this film, there’s still much more to develop in this ongoing story of refuge east and west.
