Sinopsis

A group of Buddhists travel to the Sherab Ling monastery in India. Much of Buddhist iconography is based on colour and the idea of circularity and Buddhist philosophy has aspects of kinetic movement and a ritual nature in common with filmmaking. Blow Horn is a journey to India that contains the spiritual essence of  Buddhism and ends in abstraction.
