Summer, Spring, Fall, Winter and Spring
Dir.Kim Ki-duk Korea 2003 
The seasons in the title of t his meditative film mark the stages in a monk's life and his move towards spiritual transcendence. The story takes place entirely on a fog-shrouded mountain lake where a floating temple is the timeless setting for a rite of passage enacted by two monks. The old master imparts many lessons to his young protÈgÈ, including a difficult one about the nature of sorrow and guilt. When the boy grows up, he falls in love with a girl and runs off to the outside world to be with her. Eventually, damaged by jealous rage and violence, he returns to the temple seeking peace. With stunning cinematography that captures the tranquility of the surroundings, Spring, Summer... is a poetic study of the battle between youthful recklessness and enlightened wisdom. (Subtitled) (103m)
