Kindling the Flame

The early 1970s were a wild ride for the fledgling FWBO. Without a centre to call home, its members wandered through rented rooms, radical therapies, psychedelics, sexual awakenings, and countercultural experiments—all while searching for community, meaning, and a place to belong. This film captures the chaos, laughter, vulnerability, and breakthroughs of a generation determined to weave Buddhism into the fabric of a new era. 1971-74
