Subtitles

The first ever feature by Bhutanese Director
Khyentse Norbu, “The Cup” is the true story of two tibetan boys, sent to a
monastery-in-exile in India for a Buddhist education, but distracted by World Cup-obssessed roommates. It’s shot entirely on location at an Indian monastery and using only real monks as actors. The Film affectionately compares and contrasts his spiritual obsession with France 98, with the other Monks’ longing to return to their spiritual home- Tibet.
