THE CUPby Khyentse NorbuWorld Cup soccer fever sweeps into a remote Himalayan monastery and centuries-old traditions are threatened--the young monks will do just about anything to watch the final match, posing a unique challenge to the venerable lamas in charge. An engaging tale of colliding cultures, midnight escapades and daring secret plots... This is the breakthrough debut feature film by Khyentse Norbu, a prominent Tibetan Buddhist teacher--his second film, Travellers & Magicians, was also an international critical and box office success. Prayer. Discipline. Tradition. Soccer, midnight escapades, and secret plots. This multiple award-winning feature film, inspired by a true story and filmed on location in Chokling Monastery, is touching, humorous, thoroughly entertaining, and a cool glimpse into the life and thoughts of young monks. Comes with bonus features, including 10 Buddhist film trailers. "A wonderful and delightful comedy."--Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun Times "An amazingly original, exhilarating film!"--New York Post | |
