Something different, something unaccustomed, decisively enters into the life of my hero. He is a Buddha… A man who seems to be quite a «cop», and even one of the cruel ones, is forced to change, because a different human standard has arisen before him.
“In Buddhism, there is the concept of “Buddha’s smile” — these are ridiculous inconsistencies, mistakes. Our hero may have become a «victim» of the Buddha’s smile, but faith entered his life with it. In the film, the theme of faith is very important, and of any faith: there are an Orthodox priest building a church, a Muslim guest worker who helps him, and a Buddhist messenger monk. Our film is about a meeting with a different faith, traditions. But all this in order to think about yourself, about your place in the world. To rise above ordinary circumstances, we need those who are not like us. ”
