Yarlung

Directed by Kunsang Kyirong

This whimsical tale employs fluidly animated charcoal drawings to relate the stories of three Tibetan children who live in the town of Tezu, Arunachal Pradesh. Faced with a death in the family, each child expresses themself differently, via their relationship with the Yarlong Tsangpo river—the upper stream of the Brahmaputra, and the longest waterway in Tibet.
