ABOUT THE FILM: Zen Buddhist Teacher, author and poet, Thich Nhat Hanh has had a profound impact on contemporary Buddhism and social action. His efforts to achieve an early peaceful end to the American war in Vietnam earned him a nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and a forty year exile from his homeland. His ongoing work teaching reconciliation and meditation with war veterans, widows, orphans, refugees, therapists, activists, and ecumenical groups has gained him a large and respectful following around the world. This film was filmed on location in Plum Village, Vietnam Veterans Memorial and at various retreats around the US, and includes rare archival footage from Vietnam detailing the work of his School of Youth for Social Service in the 1960s.
