...style that predominates in current high-art festival films (ones, by the way, that rarely get much exposure in U.S. movie houses) is minimalist. Based on the works of early masters like Carl-Theodor Dreyer and Robert Bresson, it follows certain rules, as restrictive as any Mennonite edicts: pare movie technique down to its essentials; show characters behaving, however mutely, rather than acting; make the viewer work for their epiphanies. This style has been responsible for many small, lugubrious films and -from directors who know how to make more or less -a few masterpieces. Silent Light is one of them...

...part by drawing on friends and philosophers from Europe and Asia-he shows us, in practical ways, how we can make our lives more fulfilling. Ricard started out as a French intellectual who received a doctorate in molecular biology and counted Luis Bu?uel, Igor Stravinsky and Henri Cartier-Bresson among his friends. But 35 years ago he went to Nepal to become a Buddhist monk. When a European scientist from the Himalayas takes us into the meaning of well-being, the result is something that does not belong to East or West, to Buddhism or to neuroscience. It tells, instead...
