English Summary:
Little Buddha is a 1993 drama film directed by Bernardo Bertolucci, written by Rudy Wurlitzer and Mark Peploe, and produced by usual Bertolucci collaborator Jeremy Thomas.
Tibetan Buddhist monks from a monastery in Bhutan, led by Lama Norbu, are searching for a child who is the rebirth of a great Buddhist teacher, Lama Dorje. Lama Norbu and his fellow monks believe they have found a candidate for the child in whom Lama Dorje is reborn: an American boy named Jesse Konrad, the young son of an architect and a teacher who live in Seattle. The monks come to Seattle in order to meet the boy.
Jesse is fascinated with the monks and their way of life, but his parents, Dean and Lisa, are wary, and that wariness turns into near-hostility when Norbu announces that he wants to take Jesse back with him to Bhutan to be tested. Dean changes his mind however, when one of his close friends and colleagues commits suicide because he went broke. Dean then decides to travel to Bhutan with Jesse. In Nepal, two children who are also candidates for the rebirth are encountered, Raju and Gita.
Gradually, over the course of the movie, first Jesse's mother and then Lama Norbu tell the life story of Prince Siddhartha, reading from a book that Lama Norbu has given to Jesse.
In ancient India, a prince called Siddhartha turns his back on his comfortable and protected life, and sets out on a journey to solve the problem of universal suffering. As he progresses, he learns profound truths about the nature of life, consciousness, and reality. Ultimately, he battles Mara (a demon representing the ego), who repeatedly tries to divert and destroy Siddhartha. Through the final complete realization of the illusory nature of his own ego, Siddhartha attains enlightenment and becomes the Buddha.
Turkish Summary:
Gizemli bir dünyaya büyülü bir yolculuk Bazı elestirmenlere göre Matrix filmine de ilham kaynagı olan Küçük Buda paralel iki öyküden olusur: Bir yanda Budizmin kurucusu Prens Siddhartha''nın öyküsü aktarılırken, öte yandan Tibetli rahip Lama Norbu''nun, hocasının reenkarnasyonunu arayısı anlatılır. 9 dalda Oscar® ödüllü Son mparator, Paris''te Son Tango gibi filmleriyle tanınan usta yönetmen Bertolucci, bu gerçek hikayeyi kendi benzersiz tarzı ile sinemaya aktarmıstır. Özel efektleri, ABD ve Asya''nın farklı ülkelerinde gerçeklestirilen çekimleriyle Küçük Buda çarpıcı bir filmdir. Bertolucci, bu filmle Son İmparator ve Çölde Çay''ın ardından, kendi deyimiyle "Oryantal Üçlemesi"ni tamamlar.
Ünlü besteci Ryuichi Sakamoto''nun Grammy''e aday olan müzikleriyle film, izleyenleri gizemli bir dünyaya, büyülü bir yolculuga davet ediyor...
