在这部达摩为何东渡？剧情片中,老僧慧曲和童僧海真生活在深山中的寺庙内。一日，名叫基峰的青年僧侣前来拜访慧曲。尽管出家了，基峰仍然不能摆脱红尘中的情爱，因听说慧曲高僧可以点化心灵，遂找到山寺中。基峰和慧曲不断地进行精神层面的交流，并严守修行还是不能超脱，感到格外痛苦。慧曲寿终正寝，临逝之际并没有给基峰留下什么劝导，只是嘱托基峰能够为自己裹装……基峰继续修行。
Three people live in a remote Buddhist monastery near Mount Chonan: Hyegok, the old master; Yong Nan, a young man who has left his extended family in the city to seek enlightenment - Hyegok calls him Kibong!; and, an orphan lad Haejin, whom Hyegok has brought to the monastery to raise as a monk. The story is mostly Yong Nan's, told in flashbacks: how he came to the monastery, his brief return to the city, his vacillation between the turbulence of the world and his hope to overcome passions and escape the idea of self. We also see Hyegok as a teacher, a protector, and a father figure, and we watch Haejin make his way as a curious and nearly self-sufficient child.
何为达摩东渡意。Where does the Master of my being go？。如何是祖师西来意，禅是光影切玉刀。不立文字无字幕，实无功德思密达。导演说。说说那三个女人。居然长达137分钟！。若离于爱者，无忧亦无怖——《Why Has Bodhi-Dharma Left for the East?》。
