Stunning and amazing movie, it's the story of Life and the circle of Sin.
Beautifully shows humanity and the struggle to fight their own evil , lust,greed and other sins.
The master or the old monk is the symbol of worldy prophet who tried to teach but failed as some failed ideologies like communism but with all his efforts the boy following his natural needs runs away to be the girl but ended with her betrayal and him murdering her [but not all clear because near the end of the movie we see a face hidden mother trys to dump her baby with the new monk which in end she fell in the frozen lake and died].... it's an amazing movie with beautiful scenery and colours..you must watch in one set without interruption and think about it
