Tonight we’re viewing Zen Noir directed by Marc Rosenbush. Zen Noir is not so much a film about Zen as it is a wacked-out Zen riddle or koan.  It is enigmatic, absurdly funny, and less concerned with the plot's conceits than with the intuitive truth beating within.
All the popcorn you can eat with friends. By donation
