This is a short film is currently playing in heavy rotation as a filler between movies on The Movie Network in Canada. I have seen it multiple times by now.
It isn't about Tibet, or an exploration of the mind. :) It's a short story that takes place almost completely in one room of a suburban home, where a generic "Tibetan Monk" is interrupted in his meditation by a TV crew coming to interview him for a segment for their supernatural show.
This is very much like a segment from a Twilight Zone episode, and you can probably guess what is going on already, it is so obvious for the genre.
It has a pleasant atmosphere and a good mood set by the wall-to-wall ambient music
It would be possible to be more critical about the cliché characters here and how the ending is telegraphed from the beginning, however I think this short film's intention probably just to entertain you for a few minutes.
Without spoiling, what the monk does, assuming his culture and background, and the characters around him does not make sense. This is very basic north American television-level fiction/fantasy which does not hold up to scrutiny. However, the entire film is well produced and performed. Sarah Sido is very pleasant in her role.
