    • Run time: 97 minutes 52 seconds
    • Country of origin: Switzerland
  • Genre:
    Documentary
  • Synopsis:

    ANGRY MONK portrays the life of an unorthodox monk, revealing a face of Tibet that goes against popular cliches. The film makes unique historical footage available to the general public for the first time. But it does not dwell on the past; rather it oscillates between tradition and modernity. ANGRY MONK offers an insight into a country whose past is refracted in the contradictions of everyday life. Ultimately, this road movie tells the story of a man who left home to search for something that could have liberated traditional Tibet from its rigidity.(more)
