One of the most painstakingly
shot songs of the year; it had a very heavy
task on hand, to effectively show the growth
of Bodhidharma into Damo, one whom the Chinese
revered as God. The art work and editing of
this song were really top class. It did the
best possible job of compressing many years
of history into a capsule of a few minutes.
Perhaps, the message could not be conveyed
in its entirety but it was the most you could
get out of a song which featured in a full
length commercial feature film. It fell just
short of being highly inspiring.
