On foggy nights along Pico Blvd, the Shop of Shattered Dreams appears out of the gloom. An alternative film in the key of rhapsody, built of improvs, art, shaman journeys, myth, philosophy, science and the mystic. Framed by ordinary reality, the stories take us via Plato's Cave and the Magic Theatre into cosmology, the Big Bang, the Neolithic revolution, classic Vedanta non-dualism, classic 'from the first not a thing is' Ch'an Buddhism, Zen, Christian mysticism, Sufi tales, the Direct Seeing of the Nature of Reality, and into the sublime view of Life as the Megaverse.
