A short movie on Ramakrishna. Here is what the maker of the m ovie says:
"I read about this incident many years ago and it has haunted me ever since. It describes a young Indian boy who falls into a state of ecstasy while walking in a field in Bengal, India, during the mid part of the 19th century when all of sudden he see a black rain cloud and then majestically a flock of white cranes flying in the sky. The sight sends him into samadhi and he falls unconscious. Later, this very boy would become world famous as Sri Ramakrishna. I have always wanted to tell this little story in a movie, short as it is..... Thankfully, I had some time and did just that. Here it is: "Black Clouds and White Cranes"--script excerpted from Visions of Sri Ramakrishna."
