6. Ala Changso
Sonthar Gyal's psychological road drama "Ala Changso" tells the story of a woman, concealing her illness and the secret between her and her ex-husband, who decides to go on a religious pilgrimage to Lhasa. The title of "Ala Changso" refers to a Tibetan folk song title meaning "cheers and have this good wine". The film demonstrates the spectacular landscape and culture of the Tibetan region and the lives of its people. Rather than other filmmaking efforts trying to offer exotic or documentary-like views on Tibet, Sonthar Gyal pays more attention to interpersonal relations, exploring Tibetan people's daily interactions, their emotions and philosophy of life and death.
