Festivals

The film is the most powerful art. It can be used as an unobtrusive instrument for influence of public opinion. Every significant world event attract the attention of conspiracy theories that produce hundreds of conspiracy films. The idea of secret brotherhoods controling the world is so attractive. But what if they really exist?

The 4th Festival of Tibetan films and films about Tibet brings you 9 new films, of which 7 will screen in Czech premiere. You will visit the Dalai Lama together with a group of prominent scientists, look for reincarnation of an important lama with his foremost disciple, visit Himalayan kingdom Mustang, where conservators are saving an ancient tradition, and try to find a solution to the troubled fate of Tibetan antelope Chiru. Apart of the documentaries, the viewers will have an opportunity to see a genuine Tibetan made box-office hit, a romantic comedy about three Dharamsala friends, of which at least one is in deep love with Richard Gere. All revenue generated by the screenings is used to fund promotional and humanitarian projects of Potala NGO.
