Empty Mind (2004)
Empty mind is a meditative film that explores the relationship between life and water by focussing on martial arts. Empty Mind represents different frames of mind and their influences on physical energy; it also reflects on the cyclical ever-changing aspects of the water cycle.

If you put water in a cup it becomes the cup, if you put water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot….Now water can flow or it can crash! Be water my friend!”
