Jesus dancing with The Buddha
This was a charming Canadian film directed by Julia Kwan and featuring Vivian Wu, Hollie Lo, and Karena Eng. It is in English and Cantonese and bridges the cultural gap by showing the superstitions and beliefs of the Catholic religion and Buddhism.
Mom figures that it can't hurt to have both in the same house. Double protection, you know. I can understand that; having been baptized a Catholic as a child and a Baptist as an adult. I have both sides covered, even though I now claim neither. You know, once saved, always saved.
One daughter becomes a Catholic, while the younger one goes along with her, but clings to the Buddhist beliefs. It is funny and touching and will make you think about both religions and how they are similar in their superstitions.
Check it out.
