​🎥 Film: Meetings with Remarkable Men

Director: Peter Brook, 1979

​From the book of the same name, this semi-biographical film follows G. I. Gurdjieff from childhood to maturity in his quest for the meaning of life. As he travels through Central Asia and Egypt, each man and woman he encounters offers insight into the questions that compel his search. The film includes stunning footage of the sacred dances Gurdjieff brought to the West.

​💬 Conversation Question: Is there more to life?
