The Centre Culturel Tibétain is happy to announce that it is organizing the screening of the movie “Kalachakra – L’éveil” on Friday, 28^th February, in Ciné Utopia.

This is a documentary feature film directed by Natalie Fuchs and released in 2017.

Kalachakra means, “The wheel of time.” It is the highest initiation in Tibetan Buddhism. Rarely filmed, this initiation has long remained secret. The Dalai Lama gives this initiation for peace in the world.

As the film opens, a woman, lying on the grass, tells of her suffering after the loss of her sister when she was still a child. What is the sense of her life?
Immersed in the colorful and vibrant setting of Dharamsala, India, the woman and 3 other individuals from very different backgrounds come together to face their deepest fears as they approach the transformational power of the Kalachakra initiation. Through this film, we enter and discover an ancient and yet unknown dimension where death meets life, a dimension which changes someone forever.

The CCT team

The Centre Culturel Tibétain is happy to announce that it is organizing the screening of the movie Drokpa on Friday, 22 April 2022, in Ciné Utopia.

Drokpa is a documentary film by Yan Chun Su and is her  first feature-length documentary. Filmed at the eastern Tibetan plateau among one extended nomadic family for over four years, Drokpa premiered at the Margaret Mead Film Festival at the American Museum of Natural History in NYC in October 2016 and it received the EDA Award for Best Female-Directed Feature film at the 2017 DOXA Documentary Film Festival.

Set in the high plateau of eastern Tibet, Drokpa is an intimate portrait of the lives and struggles of Tibetan nomads whose life is on the cusp of irreversible change.

The grasslands of the Tibetan plateau are home to the source of Asia’s major rivers. Nearly half of humanity depends on this water for survival. Tibetan nomads, known as DROKPA have roamed on this land for thousands of years. In recent decades, these once lush grasslands are rapidly turning into deserts.

With rare access to an extended nomadic family living at the center stage of this drastic and historical change, Drokpa reveals the unprecedented environmental and sociopolitical forces that are pushing the Tibetan nomads to the edge of their existence.

Richly observed daily lives and family relationships, especially those of Tamku, a teenage single mother, Dhongya, a senior nomad and Yithan, a mother of two boys are at once deeply personal and illustrative of the universal issues of gender, freedom, adaptation to a changing climate and the resilience of human spirits.
