We will end the celebration with a Bonus Screening of "Each of My Steps is a Prayer",a Documentary film about Zen Master Thich Nhẩt Hạnh's 2007 return to Vietnam.Proceeds benefit non-profit organizations including Thây Thich Nhẫt Hạnh's and Sister Chan Khong's Love and Understanding Program (feeding and educating underprivileged preschoolers in Vietnam) as well as The Vietnamese Buddhist Cultural Center of Florida and The Broward Lotus Sangha offering free meditation and mindfulness programs in the State of Florida.Tickets are $10 in advance and $15 at the door.
