Screening with Carried by the Sea
A young man cuts out hearts from a sheet of paper and drops them into a pot of water. Confined by the walls of the vessel, they simply circle around. Lharigtso’s haunting, almost monochrome short reflects on the Buddhist saying, “There is no Buddha beyond the mind, and no mind beyond the Buddha.”
Born in Amdo, East Tibet, director Lharigtso grew up in Beijing and graduated from Beijing’s China Women’s University.
Director: Lala Lharigtso – Producer: Donagh Coleman – Cinematographer: Timo Peltonen – Editor: Tuula Mehtonen – Soundscape: Rainer Jancis
