Hills like white elephants is a story about a conversation between a men and a girl who is about to have an abortion. Everything it´s explained in an implicit way or symbolism.                                                                                At the beginning it´s hard to get the main idea but once you get it it´s very interesting.

The video showed the story of Sidharta.  A man who had everything but when he discovered human pain and suffer, he left it.  Also, it showed different perceptions and explanations about Buddhism. It was boring but it clarified some concepts. It made me understood the short story a bit more.   

 At the exhibit we saw the most important elements and some history of Indian culture and religions. It showed deities, demons and natural beings. Their meanings and importance were explained. It was impressive to see how different our religions and believes are. The sculptures were gorgeous and kind of weird.  

Buddhists doesn´t approve abortion even though on their countries this is a common practice. The main concern of having an abortion is karma. Abortion is mainly used as a birth control method. It is hard thinking that if they had better methods this dangerous practice would not be that common.
