In The Name of Buddha
Find me this movie, I’ll buy you dinner at your restaurant of choice!!
I’ve been trying to find this movie for years, and still no luck!
It is a film that has caused widespread controversy following its world premier at the 2002 Oslo Film Festival. ‘In the Name of Buddha’ is a true story about possibly one of the worst genocides at the end of the twentieth century. The film graphically portrays the conflict between native Tamil people and the Sri Lankan army and Indian peacekeeping forces.This ethnic conflict has been raging since 1983 and according to UNHCR has seen more than 60,000 Tamil people lose their lives and nearly 900,000 people flee their homelands in Sri Lanka. The film is an account of human rights violations of the Tamil people in Northeast Sri Lanka and contains scenes of the violence that descended on them, from the island followers of Buddha’s normally peaceful principles and teachings.

Yo, that movie is practically impossible to find. Unless someone was able to rip it off from the premiers, ur gonna be out of luck. I dont’ think it was ever released to the general public.
