LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

Here’s the trailer for a new feature film about Buddhism called Golden Kingdom that will premiere in America this fall.

It’s already opend in Europe and gotten great reviews.   According to Variety,  Golden Kingdom  “…is a more intimate appreciation of Buddhism than Martin Scorsese’s rapturous “Kundun” or Bernardo Bertolucci’s earnest but misguided “Little Buddha.”

The film follows a group of four novice monks, young boys, who must fend for themselves in their monestary after their head monk leaves.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, three of the four boys are real life monks in training but “the director’s own extensive research into the history, traditions and language of the territory is evident in the final product.”
