The Cup
45 votes
Buddhism is their philosophy. Soccer is their religion.
While the World Cup is being played in France, two young Tibetan refugees arrive at a monastery in India. The atmosphere of serene contemplation is soon disrupted by soccer fever, as the two students desperately seek a TV to watch the final.

Description
"The Cup" is a lighthearted look inside a Buddhist monastery and the lives of some young expatriated Tibetan Monk soccer fans. This simple story is told in a simple way with a serenity not often found in western films. Some will find this film's slow pace tedious while others will appreciate a rare look at an esoteric and cloistered culture.
