Cantor Film Center, 36 East 8th Street
The Center for Religion and Media presents a screening and discussion of Amongst White Clouds (dir: Edward Burger, 2005, 86 min.)

A journey into the hidden tradition of China’s Buddhist hermit monks living in scattered retreats dotting China's Zhongnan Mountain range raises questions about their former marginalization, and current rediscovery, as religious practices revive in the People’s Republic.

A discussion between filmmaker Edward Burger and Angela Zito will follow the screening. (See Zito's most recent interview with Philip Groening about his film Into Great Silence.)
