Movie Fundraiser - The Monk and the Gun
In support of the renovations at the Auckland Buddhist Centre
Join sangha members and others to see this delightful film, set in Bhutan when it became a democracy.
As IMDb describes the plot, "An American travels to Bhutan in search of treasure and crosses paths with a young monk wandering the serene mountains and instructed by his teacher to make things right." But is also so much more than that.
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 92% of 38 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 8.1/10. The website's consensus reads: "Surrounding its poignant insights with a gentle layer of crowd-pleasing comedy, The Monk and the Gun is a timely political satire that underscores the fragility of democracy."
Come and join the fun.
Please arrive at 6.30pm for a 7pm start.
