Feb/March 2005
Thanks to the warm support of Rialto cinemes,
Buddha Wild – The Monk in a Hut, had a successful
sneak preview public screening in its country of origin
with a very warm response, sell-out crowd and request
for more showings.
The event was also successful in raising funds for the
tsunami. These funds were presented formally to Thai
and Sri Lankan relief efforts.
The film was throughly "enjoyed" by the full
house. Anna Wilding's contribution was "marvellously
well judged with just the right amount of seriousness
and humour."
