BUDDHA’S LOST CHILDREN

We support cultural communities and indigenous peoples by 

  • assisting them to make their own films about their own culture, as well as screening those films at events worldwide and on our website
  • sharing visual educational materials and resources from other cultures in assisting them to find solutions in the endeavors of others with similar problems
  • connecting them to other communities and enabling them to form new friendships and start collaborative projects through our screening events and our website

World info

All of our films link to pages with additional cultural information and material.

Your journey starts by watching our films, but can last much longer after you exit the theater or pull out that DVD.

For information on the countries and cultures you see in our films, visit their individual web pages on this site.

Our films will open the door into a culture, but we don’t intend to stop there. We like to carry you over the threshold and unite you with the world. We connect you to the filmmakers and the people in the films you just watched.

We also show you the way how to connect with the diversity of your own local community, where you can meet and befriend neighbors who are looking forward to introduce you to their world as well looking forward to know more about your part of their world.

community screenings & fundraisers

Most of the films we support can be available for a screening at your local community center. Combined with a World Culture Event package and the Charitable Projects booth your community turns entertainment into a worthwhile contribution to the world.

Or host a Culture Wrap Party at your house and invite your friends and family to watch a film from our World Cinema collection. Introduce them to members of the local  community from the culture you just watched in the film. Watch together, cook and eat together and become friends. After the screening, your friends can buy the DVD and other merchandise of the film they just watched. From the information package we supply you with, they can also contribute right to the charitable and educational project that are connected to the particular film you chose.   More info.
