| Zen for Nothing is a masterly 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 halI, carry out movements with chopsticks, etc. There’s more to Iife there than meditation, farming, and maintenance, however—there are picnics, music, and Wi-Fi. And after the last snow has melted 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. Simple and beautifuIIy fiImed, this is lnto Great SiIence meets EnIightenment Guaranteed, with composer Fred Frith performing the eclectic, eIegant score. –Freer GaIIery of Art |
