《浮筏 Floating Raft》讲述了第34代少林武僧“释延翌”在洛杉矶追寻“美国梦”的故事。来美7年了，没有回过一次国，对故土亲人的思念与日俱增，经历了给别人打工到自己创业开武馆的艰辛，他这一年新的事业刚刚起步并收获了绿卡，然而内心却充满了挣扎，一边是看似舒适的在美生活但内心却感到某种消耗和煎熬，另一边是国内的快速发展和各种诱人的变化。他徘徊在“神圣和世俗”之间，是保持僧人的身份还是还俗走上世俗之路，是留在美国还是回到祖国？

"Floating Raft" takes an observational look at the life of a vibrant Chinese Buddhist monk Shi Yanyi and his Buddhist brothers, in Los Angeles. The Shaolin Temple is famous for its 1500-year Buddhist Kung Fu tradition in China. The Shi Fu, a respected name of a Buddhist monk, who grew up in China and trained in the skills of Kung Fu are now facing all kinds of identity challenges in the US, both in their personal lives and in their mission to promote Shaolin culture. As Buddhist monks, how do they negotiate the contrasts between the sacred world (religious and ascetic) and the secular world (the need to earn a living) and as new immigrants, in the context of Chinese economic booming, how do they adapt from their former lives in China to their new lives in the U.S. and how do they make a decision to stay or leave?
