\u2018Pig at the Crossing\u2019 is quite simply one of the most potent films ever made. A cinematic Death Meditation by a monk director may not sound like your idea of entertainment, but it grabs you by the roots of your heart from the \u2018we are just pig meat\u2019 scene, and tosses you out of your carcass to wander frantically among literal lost souls until unfinished business is done and you can move on. Some horror movies aim to make you scream but this is horror to make you shiver\u2014a piercing immersion in what both the Bible and the I Ching call \u201cfear and trembling\u201d. Director Khyentse Norbu (Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse Rinpoche) of The Cup fame is festooned with international awards and this movie is awesome but, oddly, it never went to the big festivals. Here\u2019s the proof, if you still needed any, that the film festival circuit is broken.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
