FILM 47.22 Buddhism and Film
“What is Buddhism?” “How can it be something expressed in and through the medium of film?” and “What actually constitutes a Buddhist film?” After an introductory survey of central topics in Buddhism, this course will explore the cinematic presentation of Buddhist religion, philosophy, practices, saints, and institutions. By learning to watch films critically from a Buddhist perspective, students will explore the process through which we create the meaning in films and everyday life. Open to all.
