The Dharamshala International Film Festival (Diff) in collaboration with Drung Tibetan Filmmakers’ Collective announced the online edition of Tibetan films with diverse filmmakers spread across the globe on Tuesday. The initiative showcases over 30 diverse range of exile Tibetan films on a limited-period online streaming platform on tibetfilms.com from Dec. 3 to 13 on pay-per-view basis.
Diff co-founder Tenzing Sonam in a press release said, “Films coming out of the exile Tibetan community are diverse and wide-ranging. Many have found recognition on the international stage. But sadly, access to these films, particularly for Tibetans, is limited and most remain unseen by the larger community. It is to try and fill this gap that Diff and Drung have joined forces and started this new initiative.” He also said that Tibetan filmmakers have gained momentum and taken great strides in finding their own cinematic voice and language in the recent years.

Deepak Rauniyar’s Highway, which premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival 2012, was recently screened at the Osian’s Cinefan Film Festival. Credited with making the first Nepali film to travel to one of the top festivals in the world, Berlinale, Deepak Rauniyar tells us more about Highway:
What was the starting point for the film?
In 2009, I happened to be on a road trip from east Nepal to the capital, Kathmandu. Our journey was obstructed by three different ‘bandhs’, organized by three different groups in three different parts of the country. This was when my colleagues Kedar Sharma, Khagendra Lamichhane and I started talking about the idea for this film, Highway. I felt that by setting a story against the backdrop of this new ‘bandh’ culture, I would not only be able to explore physical ‘bandhs’, but also explore the mental/psychological ‘bandhs’ that many of us seem to be facing these days.
