Film Noire from Bhutan: Special Screening of "Honeygiver Among the Dogs” on September 20th

The Tibetan & Himalayan Cultural Festival in Longmont brings together food, film, photography, and dance.

 

Join us at 2pm on Saturday, September 20th at the Longmont Museum & Cultural Center for a special screening of Honey Giver Among the Dogs (Monmo Tashi Kyidren), directed by Dechen Roder. About the film: In remote Bhutan, an undercover detective investigates the case of a missing Buddhist nun and falls into a risky alliance with his only suspect - an alluring woman known as the village “demoness.”

 

Film starts at 2:15pm. There will be light refreshments, chai and momos (dumplings), before the film begins and time for Q&A after the film with Professors Padma ‘tsho (Southwest Minzu University) and Holly Gayley (CU Boulder). There is a special photo and woodcut exhibit to enjoy in conjunction with the film, and the chance to try out Tibetan circle dance to conclude the festival.

 

Kindly register in advance here. Free and open to the public.

 

This event is co-sponsored by the Tibet Himalaya Initiative at CU Boulder and the Longmont Multicultural Action Committee.
