Pema Tseden's Movie Screenings | Museum of Moving Image

One of the most exciting and inspiring filmmakers to emerge so far this century, Pema Tseden died last year in mid-career, at 53. Born to farmer-herder parents in the Tibetan highlands of Amdo, Qinghai Province, China, he studied Tibetan literature and in the early 1990s began publishing short stories in both Tibetan and Chinese. The first Tibetan to graduate from the prestigious Beijing Film Academy, where he shot two short films, he became the first Tibetan filmmaker working in China to shoot a feature entirely in Tibetan: 2005’s The Silent Holy Stones. Pema Tseden created seven more features, with largely the same group of collaborators, who are now the nucleus of a Tibetan film community continuing his legacy.
