Those who were born in the year of the monkey are known to be dexterous, and those born in the year of the pig ? on a winter night ? are known to have comfort all their lives. Without scientific proof, the zodiac has been explaining our lives in various ways for centuries. But why these 12 animals? Who chose them, and according to what standard? Here`s a movie that will provide an answer. The eminent Jade Emperor was ruling the sky and earth under Buddha`s order. All things were developing well, except the idea of time didn`t exist yet and that would bring disaster in the future. The emperor decides to host a race to select 12 animals and have each guard one year. All animals participate in the race to be selected as one of 12 and earn eternal life. We all know the result of the race already. (Michelle Sohn)
