UNION DOCS — BROOKLYN
“A classic of nonfiction cinema.” FOREST OF BLISS directed by Robert Gardner
“ … an unsparing but ultimately redeeming account of the inevitable griefs and frequent happinesses that punctuate daily life in Benares, one of the world’s most holy cities. The film unfolds from one sunrise to the next without commentary, subtitles or dialogue. It is an attempt to give anyone who sees it a wholly authentic though greatly magnified view of the matters of life and death that are portrayed.”
