A strained reunion, friction at a funeral, and taking back control using Buddhism. This collection of films explores the role of religion and spirituality in shaping identity.

Aduniad llawn straen, gwrthdaro mewn angladd, ac adennill rheolaeth gan ddefnyddio Bwdhaeth. Mae'r casgliad hwn o ffilmiau'n archwilio rôl crefydd ac ysbrydolrwydd wrth lunio hunaniaeth.

Tang is an elderly man who suppresses his paedophilia with Buddihsm. His neighbour Chun, a child neglected by his mother, seeks help and dines at Tang’s home. Chun's request to stay the night puts Tang in a moral dilemma. How will the two spend the night together?
