In this second film of the series, we follow an old lama and a 13-year old monk who are going to a neighbouring village to the home of a young person who has died in order to read the texts of the Bardo Thödol to help him pass from death to rebirth. For 49 days, they will perform the ancient rites and lead us to a better understanding of Buddhist doctrine based on the search for compassion and truth. Death is inevitable. This film shows up how to prepare for it.
