100 Sunset

Directed by Kunsang Kyirong

Kunsel is an introverted young woman living in the Tibetan immigrant community of west Toronto, where she commits petty theft and spies on her neighbours through a camcorder. However, when newcomer Passang moves into the neighbourhood with her much older husband, Kunsel is gradually drawn out of her solitary, watchful existence. The presence of a dhikuti — a communal lending practice in which participants contribute a fixed monthly sum to be redistributed back to community members — adds a $200,000 payout to an already volatile mix of intrigue and betrayal.
