Admission includes post-screening reception and Q&A with filmmaker.
Daughters of Wisdom views contemporary Tibet through the eyes of some of the country’s most extraordinary women: the nuns of the Kala Rongo monastery of Nangchen, Kham. Founded in 1990, the Kala Rongo monastery offers women choices they’ve never been given before, challenging traditional attitudes about gender and hierarchy. Presented in association with The Hartley Film Foundation.
Further screenings: July 23 and 30 and August 6, 13, 20, and 27 at 7:00 p.m.
