In Buddhism, there is a place where hungry souls gather
between lives awaiting rebirth so they can finally
satisfy the desires that haunt them. In the San
Fernando Valley, that place is Marina Lucero's
house. THE REALM OF HUNGRY
SPIRITS For Marina Lucero, whose father
transformed his life through meditation and whose mother
gave hers to a Carmelite convent, spirituality should come
easily. It doesn't. After a devastating relationship leaves
her feeling lost and alone, she opens her home to a
collection of wayward souls— the abused woman next door and
her alcoholic sister, her aimless nephew and his
broken-hearted best friend. Her house now full but her heart
still empty, Marina then turns to the wisdom of Gandhi, the
Dalai Lama, even a Santeria priest who wants to cleanse her
home. As Marina struggles to balance the
disappointments and delights of daily life, she'll learn
that, when it comes to inner peace and those we love, a
little chaos can lead to a lot of happiness.
