Samsara
U

Samsara is a meditative and visually stunning portrait of the spiritual journey of a soul as it journeys through death and rebirth. 
Drama • Philosophical • Spiritual

The word 'samsara' describes the Buddhist cycle of death and reincarnation. From the temples of Laos, alongside a group of teenage monks, we will accompany a soul in its transit from one body to another through the bardo.

The words of the "Tibetan Book of the Dead" will be our guide to avoid getting lost in the afterlife. A luminous and sonorous journey that will lead us to reincarnate on the beaches of Zanzibar, where groups of women work in seaweed farms.

This film contains flickering or flashing lights that may affect those with photosensitive epilepsy.
