Monk With a Camera

Born to a life of privilege amongst the American elite, photographer Nicholas Vreeland found his solace in Tibetan Buddhism, ultimately immigrating to India in the mid-'80s to become a monk. When the 2008 economic collapse threatened the monastery construction he had been shepherding, he salvaged the project through a global jaunt selling his photographs, as detailed in this portrait of a remarkable life. 90 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
