usually on this website we talk about music...but we recently made this project with the tibetan monks of Gyuto...so we are deeply concerned about what is happening today in Tibet....Please take some time to look at these videos and to read about what's going on right now in Tibet...

In june last year I went to visit the monastery in dharamsala to meet the monks of gyuto to prepare the project we did in april and may this year in grenoble, antwerp, kortrijk, louvain-la-neuve and brussels. I spend a week in the monastery sharing with the monks their daily life. I filmed a lot of ceremonies, and videast filipa cardoso made a very nice short film out of the many rolls! In her film you can really feel the peaceful and intense vibrations emanating from their rituals.
