SHAMBHALA | Himalayan Film Goes Global | Berlinale #92

As a refugee who embarked on a harrowing journey to escape a troubled past at a tender age, marked by the absence of familial connections for countless years, narratives have become my lifeline. Without the semblance of a permanent address, stories have emerged as my sole asset, composed of dreams, hopes, and ideas-a treasure trove I hold in the highest regard.
My upbringing was steeped in the richness of narratives, acting as the driving force behind my pursuit of continuous growth and self-improvement. This journey has not only solidified my passion for storytelling but has also highlighted the profound impact it has on our scattered global community. This endeavor has served as a vital bridge, fostering mutual understanding among individuals from varying walks of life. It's been instrumental in bridging the generational gap, uniting the wisdom of yesteryears with the vigor of the present through the conduit of stories, experiences, and ideas.

A film from the hidden land of Dolpo. And the story and plot based on Dolpo people. Proud dolpopas.

[@shawn10119]

Whoever the actors are and whatever their ethnicity is , remember this isn't a Tibetan movie , the director himself is Nepali and even though actors may have been born somewhere else they majory grew up in Nepal . Nepal is densely composed of Tibetan Nepalese and that doesn't make them Tibetans instead of Nepali .🙄 It is true that it reflects Tibetan ethnicity but that doesn't make it a Tibetan film , it is proudly and officially a Nepali Film as many Tibetans reside since ages in Nepal and the movie was shot totally in mesmerizing landscapes of Nepal . Pls don't discard others efforts claiming as one of yours . All the best for "SAMBHALA " and Nepal .🇳🇵🇳🇵

[@sonamlama4537]

This is Tibetan movie only shot in Nepal n it's getting famous coz of Tibetan culture 😂😂😂

[@tenzinjurmay3352]

Whether it is a nepali or any else just think that we all are same brother and sister same human...

[@tenzinjurmay3352]

So much problem in ur mind just wash it properly 😂

[@jurmilotay6118]

Tibet and Nepal has shared history, folk tales and trade routes " since the ancient times" . PRINCESS BRIKUTI of Nepal married Tibetan Emperor Songsten Gampo in 600 AD. So let's not call the border area as Nepal-China boder. It is Nepal Tibet border " since the ancient times"

[@dreamadventure8220]

Yes , I am Bhutia from Darjeeling. This movie absolutely is Nepali movie. It's a story of Nepal , it's produced by Nepal , it's certified by Nepal. It's so hilarious and embarassing that Our Tibetan siblings wants to claim these movie lol 😂😂, But in other days these same Tibetan people look down on us Himalayan people.

[@jaimahakaljainepal9391]

[@TruthHumble3220]

[@manbabbled259]

Why is Tibet called China?

[@dreamadventure8220]

It's so embarrassing to see Tibetan people trying say the movie belong to their Tibetan Nationality. You guys are same people who look us Himalayan people as inferior to you. Dolpo like any other trans Himalayan region have many Tibetic community who are citizens of Nepal , Bhutan and India , that doesn't mean they are Tibetan. Get a life guys

[@ZINDAGIMARVEL]

Now, no one deny Doplopas and Tibetan are same in ethnicity. Kudos to the team, Bham dai, thank you.

[@johndavis6119]

This would be a great documentary on what is surely an excellent film. It is nice hearing Tibetan Nepali and Chinese spoken but very few in the Walest speak those languages. Please consider rereleasing this with subtitles or English and other western languages spoken over the cast. I am glad the actual movie will have subtitles. I am Zen mostly but have been studying Tantric Buddhism and the Guru Padmasimbhava and love hearing about Tibetan and other Himalayan cultures.

[@thuptenchoklang6108]

Hello, Kata la! I have known you from the very beginning of this journey of Aha moments. You saw the vision, and it is proceeding in the right direction. Today, you are one of the prominent figures for interview sessions. Super proud of you for bringing such authentic content. Keep it up. Stay happy and keep exploring more. Thanks for the interview. 'Shambala” seems grand but be like a very rooted film. I would love to go for the screening.❤ kudos to entire team

[@Tib_Tashi]

Congratulations to all the team members. Great interview. Looking forward to seeing the movie 🎬.

[@gyaltsenwangchuk7669]

A very interesting and warm conversation between BK and Tibetan casts of the film called Shambala. Though Shambala is a Nepalese film, judging by the nature of the film a more appropriate lebal should be a Tibetan film- the casts, the story, language and culture & religion of the place. The nationality of the director and legal status of Dolpo don't prevent the film being called a Tibetan film if the director wants. One can understand why he called it a Nepalese film.

[@Helloworld-vv4gi]

Be grateful Tibetans living in Nepal got chance to play in Nepalese movie instead of claiming it as Tibetan movie. Just because Stallone plays in Bollywood movie does not make it Hollywood movie. director is Nepalese, shooting done in dolpo Nepal. Culture and tradition , story belongs to dolpo region of Nepal and they speak khaam very similar to Tibetan language but not same. There are many ethnicity in Nepal that speaks Tibetans or closely related to Tibetan language but are Nepalese. Even Sonam Topden has mentioned on Nepali podcast it is dolpo local language not Tibetan language even though is very similar.

[@skyerlog5487]

Kudos to the movie's success. It is good to learn that all the actors paid attention on the dialects spoken as uniform unlike Caravan. thank you for sharing. It would be really nice for the actors to get educated in buddhist philosophy related to the movie story plot as people tend to ask that question a lot. It looks bit embarrassing to not know the deeper meanings of Buddhism specially related to one's roles. I would advise new movie makers not to be a copycat but come up with your own original stories and bring actual professional technical experts. We have a lot of stories to tell, but the trick is to be a great original story teller, script writer and we have selection of good actors now.

[@nangsallhamo1402]

Absolutely agree with you. I got second-hand embarrassment when the cast member couldn't answer a simple question about buddhism and its connection to this movie. I guess it's different with the younger generation or they got too nervous to answer in English. They still have time to practise more behind the scenes and hopefully they will. It's a great opportunity for us Tibetans or Nepalis or overall Himalayan people to relay the message of Buddha's and His Holiness' teachings. I haven't watched the full movie yet, so just trying to read through the trailer only. I thought the climactic moment was when the baby was conceived and one husband said we need to protect the life no matter what or who. So I thought the message was about loving kindness and respect for human life. Maybe I am reading it wrong. And then when the director, Min, started answering this question, he got into all metaphysical and philosophical reasons. So the cast missed the opportunity to answer from a cultural or simple Buddhist point of view. Oh well. Hopefully next time! Overall, I am super proud of this movie and the cast and can't wait to watch the full movie.
