An Opening of the Heart

Set against the spirit of the 1960s, this documentary tells the heartfelt story of how a small group of seekers, guided by Sangharakshita, planted the seeds of a new Buddhist community in the West. Through laughter, struggles, and friendship, they discovered meditation, ritual, and a sense of belonging that would change their lives forever. A film about courage, connection, and the birth of a movement rooted in kindness and hope.
