version without subtitles but the audio commentary of Jan Kounen its director (2005)
Hindu tradition has a privileged place to the "great souls" and the spiritual master, Amma is now one of the most important living masters. She is the incarnation of the Divine Mother and is now considered a saint. This film tries to show, in the particular context of traditional India, another way of perceiving the world.
Kounen (99 Francs, Dobermann, Blueberry) takes us on a journey to discover another dimension of existence beyond our Western view. A wonderful human and spiritual encounters.
Nicknamed "The Divine Mother India" Amma, whose real name "Sri Mata" Amma "Amritanandamayi Devi" is considered a saint in his country. After a modest background, finance pensions for more than 25,000 women, mobile medical camps, orphanages and schools and hospitals Amrita Istitute of Medical Science and Research, and funds its activities through donations collected during the celebrations (Puja, Homa, Bhajan, Darshan, Devi Bhava) it organizes around the world. On the occasion of its fiftieth anniversary in September 2003, over one hundred thousand people gathered for four days in Kochi in Kerala. At the ceremony of Darshan, Amma hugged several thousand people one by one, without interruption, for more than 20 hours. What's going on there "really" in his grasp?
"The film shows the evolution of my perception of Amma, the first view of the western face of the strange and then a gradual shift in the flow of love and perception of the beauty of a destiny worthy of a myth. The story of a little girl who was considered mad by an entire village with its willingness to embrace the world and that eventually convert others to his "madness". "(Kounen)
"This film has the great merit of opening our eyes and hearts by fueling our curiosity about a hero of flesh and blood, which offers another worldview. "(Studio)
"Every plan, careful to the extreme is a fragment of a voyage lives. "(First)
