Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
MA: SPACE/TIME IN THE GARDEN OF RYOAN-JI
Synopsis
The starting point of the work is the Japanese concept of ‘ma’, i.e. vacuum, the essence of minimalism. Ryoan-ji, the 16th-century stone garden of the Buddhist Zen temple in Kyoto is presented in a way that focuses attention not on its component parts, but the space between them.
