White Sun

Streaming video - 2016

Gorgeously photographed in outskirts of the Himalayas, WHITE SUN explores the damage done to the fabric of Nepalese society by the decade-long civil war between the Maoists and Nepal’s monarchical government. On the occasion of his father’s funeral, Chandra returns to the village he left years earlier to join the Maoists, and finds himself revisiting frayed family relations and unspoken divisions among neighbors. Past traumas return and cause tensions to boil over. Official Selection at the **Toronto International Film Festival** and nominated for the Venice Horizons Award at the **Venice Film Festival**.
