Tharlo - Short Story and Film Script by Pema Tseden

The story of a Tibetan shepherd who is pulled from the security of his mountain flock into a harsh and alien urban world. Imaginatively adapted for the big screen from his short story (2012) by the author-director himself, the film version of Tharlo (2015) represents Pema Tseden's greatest cinematic achievement to date, and has garnered numerous international prizes.
