ALMS introduces the foundations of Chan/Zen Buddhist monastic life in China through the eyes of the Head Chef of a Chan Buddhist monastery. Witness how this community functions as a self-sufficient micro-society in which every element of daily life is an expression of this distinctive Buddhist school. ALMS is the first Dreaming Buddhas Project short film on Buddhist life in China.
