Filmmaker Márta György-Kessler's Meeting the Buddha is currently screening across various cities in Australia. The award-winning documentary mainly follows the story of how the lives of Tibetan Buddhist leader, the 16th Karmapa, Rangjung Rigpe Dorje and a Danish hippie couple, intertwined after a chance encounter in Nepal in 1969. SBS Nepali spoke with the film's producer, director and writer György-Kessler and Melbourne-based senior Tibetan Buddhist leader in the Sakya tradition, Zimo’g Rinpoche, about the documentary and its journey from archives to the screen.
