Tuesday, May 16, at 11.30am in The Dock
On Tuesday, May 16, at 11.30am, The Dock in Carrick-on-Shannon presents an enchanting Oscar-nominated drama about a young, daydreaming teacher who is posted to a remote school in the Himalayan mountain village of Lunana.
There, he is disheartened to find a simple yak herding community lacking basic amenities such as electricity or even a blackboard in its school classroom.
But the enthusiasm of his young students and the unassuming warmth of the village folk buoy his spirits and he must decide whether to return to the city before the gruelling winter sets in or remain in this strange and captivating land.
Beautifully photographed in extraordinary Bhutanese mountain locations, Pawo Choyning Dorji’s acclaimed debut feature gives a fascinating insight into a region rarely seen on screen.
