WELTREISE MIT BUDDHA

THE ODD MONK is an entertaining personal exploration of contemporary Buddhism. In his debut film, German filmmaker Jesco Puluj travels around the world to meet various monks and nuns and asks them: What is the essence of Buddhism? And should he become a Buddhist himself? In doing so, he questions popular clichés and shows the viewer how to redefine his own relationship to religion and how to benefit from the teachings of Buddha.
