SIT
Herself
This is a film about my family. My father is a Japanese buddhist monk. He is the head of a small temple in Bloomington, Indiana where he lives with my mother and my brother. My father became ordained at the young age of 22 and have since sat in meditation for over 30,000 hours of his life. At the age of 22 my brother lives at home with them and looks for his own purpose. The apple may appear far from the tree but it seems when it comes to searching for purpose we are all the same.
