‘Radical Love - Life and Legacy of Satish Kumar’ Movie Screening & Post-screening Talk
 

Co-presenters: 
Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden
The Office of the Arts Administrator, The Chinese University of Hong Kong

We invite you to join a free film screening event at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, followed by an online sharing session with Satish Kumar.

A friend and returning teacher of Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden, Satish Kumar has been honoured with an inspiring documentary film about his life and philosophy. Known for his 8,000-mile peace pilgrimage, Satish is an Indian pacifist, activist, author and educator who has been inspiring global change for almost 70 years.

Between his home in southern England and a profound experience in India, the film captures Satish Kumar’s transformative journey. Directed by Brazilian Julio Hey, ‘Radical Love’ is a film about love and forgiveness, optimism and hope.

This is also a chance to connect and reconnect with like-minded others, and be inspired to take Satish's legacy of radical love forward in your own lives.

More about ‘Radical Love’ 

‘Radical Love’ narrates the story of Satish becoming a monk, then becoming an activist in the Land Gift movement and then going on a peace pilgrimage around the world. The film also tells the story of Schumacher College and Satish’s friendship with Vandana Shiva. This intimate portrait follows Satish as a living demonstration of a life imbued with the powers of simplicity, collaboration and love.
