“Zen Noir” Marc Rosenbush
USA, 2004, 71
minutes
The multiple award-winning Zen Noir is a murder mystery for those not afraid to think. A nameless detective
investigates a mysterious death in a Buddhist temple, but his logical, left-brained crime-solving skills are useless in the
intuitive, non-linear world of Zen. Increasingly confused and unnerved, haunted by his dead wife's ghost, and with his investigation
going nowhere, the Detective finds himself drawn into a deeper, darker, more personal mystery, where he must confront terrifying
questions about love and loss, which lead to a startling realization: the mystery he's there to solve isn't a murder at all,
but the mystery of death itself. Starring Kim Chan, who has worked on films with Scorsese, Mel
Gibson, and Bruce Willis,
and directed by award-winning filmmaker Marc Rosenbush.
Adult situations, with some nudity and language.
