Philosopher Escaped
Alexander Piatigorsky, an expert on Buddhist and Indian thought, is a legendary figure in the Russian intellectual circles since the late sixties. The film follows him to various cities, around: London, his current hometown; Moscow, the city of his birth; as well as to the Buddhist monasteries in the Himalayas, the place of his dreams and the source of his research. While the setting changes, the conversation continues: friendly, exuberant, funny, dead serious, it invites the viewer to join in the quest for the philosopher, trying to find out how such a being can exist and what he is made of.
