Indian Diary – Days at Sree Sankara (2001)

Michael Pilz intended his trip to India to be simple, but a girlfriend's remark before he left – that he wouldn't have truly been there without pictures – shaped one of his most elegant films. It’s a concise work exploring Ayurvedic healing, captured in vivid, intensely colored images. The film delves deeply, focusing on details like glances and gestures. ImplicitIndian Diary – Days at Sree Sankara feels like a tribute to Robert Gardner's Forest of Bliss, a film Pilz admires greatly, sometimes believing he recreated scenes from it himself.
