  • The video by filmmaker Ellen Pau will show a futuristic being recite the Buddhist ‘Heart Sutra’ in sign language for two hours, visible from 7pm-9pm from May 20
  • Pau, who hopes the film will bring healing to those who see it and encourage them to ‘keep calm and carry on’, reveals how a friend’s passing inspired the work
