Description

Winner—Betty Youson Award for Best Canadian Short Documentary

A Tibetan couple in Lhasa clings to their traditional way of life while watching the emergence of an unfamiliar social order through the eyes of their daughter. For her parents, she's a bridge between the past and present in this reflection on the loneliness of generational gaps. Mariam Zaidi
