Program Note
The director from Tibet, Pema Tseden, presents his latest feature, the winner of the 2014 Shanghai International Film Festival Best Cinematography award. As China’s leading independent filmmaker, Pema Tseden has consistently dealt with the life and culture of contemporary Tibet through films such as The Silent Holy Stones(2005) and Old Dog(2011). This film is a tale of friendship and love of Tibetans through the thousand-year-old archery tradition. According to Amdo legend, Damo and Lhalong villages hold an annual archery competition that determines which village keeps The Sacred Arrow for one year. Dradon of the Lhalong village is enraged when he unfortunately loses by a head to Nyima of the Damo village. Overcome with jealousy and a sense of inferiority, Dradon realizes Nyima is in love with his younger sister and continues to interfere. Then one day, a local Tibetan government-sponsored International Archery Competition is held, and there Dradon and Nyima meet once again. The Tibetans pure and genuine friendship and love unravels against the breathtaking Tibetan highlands. (KANG Naeyoung)
