[edit] Blurb
From the award winning director of the Last Emperor comes this visually stunning film based on the life of the Buddha, starring Keanu Reeves, Bridget Fonda, and Chris Isaak.
In Seattle, USA, a young boy and his family discover the story of Prince Siddhartha and how he became the Buddha. Then Tibetan monks appear on the scene, searching for their leader's reincarnation - who they believe has been reborn in the young boy. Thus the life story of the Buddha is interwoven with a modern story about young tulkus.
Also featuring Sogyal Rinpoche, Dzongsar Khyentse Norbu Rinpoche, Khyongla Rato Rinpoche and Geshe Tsultrim Gyeltsen. Extras include: the making of Little Buddha, and interview with producer Jeremy Thomas, and theatrical trailer.
"The most quietly moving film Bertolucci has made." The Village Voice.
