In the Tibetan Book of the Dead, Bardo is the intermediate state between death and reincarnation in which the deceased experiences visions of one’s previous life before being reborn.
__________
"Audiovisual stream inspired by the Tibetan book of the Dead, this film expresses a passage between death and rebirth in perfect harmony between the pictures and the music. Bardo creates a cinematic movement that brings the audience in a state of great serenity."
