USA 2005 • Directed by Edward Burger • Documentary • 88 minutes
 American director Edward A. Burger takes us on his unforgettable journey into the hidden lives of China’s forgotten Buddhist hermit tradition. “Amongst White Clouds” is a special look at the lives of zealot students, gaunt ascetics and wise masters living in isolated hermitages dotting the peaks and valleys of China’s Zhongnan Mountain range. The Zhongnan Mountains have been home to recluses since the time of the Yellow Emperor, some five thousand years ago. Burger reveals to us their tradition, wisdom, and the hardship and joy of their everyday lives. With both humor and compassion, these inspiring and warmhearted characters reveal their inner journey.
