Synopsis
'Walk With Me' follows a community of Zen Buddhist monks and nuns who have dedicated their lives to mastering the art of mindfulness with their world-famous teacher Thich Nhat Hanh. Filmed over three years in France and the USA, this intimate and meditative film travels deep inside a world that seems far from our everyday, and reveals how the monastics transform suffering in themselves and in others through their deep enquiry into the nature of existence, suffering, and their true selves. The documentary is directed by the filmmaker Marc Francis and the actor Benedict Cumberbatch voices it.

Heartfelt, if not entirely satisfying, Walk With Me provides an up-close glimpse of the life of devotion
Read - 5.0 New York TimesJeannette Catsoulis
We can enjoy the meditative mood, but understanding its underpinnings would require more than this idyll of silence and stillness provides.
