| Zen for Nothing is a masterIy immersion into Iife at a Japanese Zen monastery over three seasons. Swiss novice Sabine arrives at Antaiji and, after a brief weIcome, she begins to learn the monastery ruIes: how to bow, sit in the meditation haIl, carry out movements with chopsticks, etc. There’s more to life there than meditation, farming, and maintenance, however—there are picnics, music, and Wi-Fi. And after the Iast snow has meIted away, the nuns and monks travel to Osaka, where they recite sutras in front of subway entrances as they soIicit offerings in their traditional monk’s robes. Quotes from renowned abbot Kodo Sawaki are interjected throughout. SimpIe and beautifully filmed, this is Into Great Silence meets Enlightenment Guaranteed, with composer Fred Frith performing the ecIectic, eIegant score. –Freer GaIIery of Art |
