March 14th- 20th
Tibet in Harlem 2: Origins is the second annual series of Tibetan and Tibet-related films at the Maysles Cinema in Harlem. This year’s program showcases a collection of rarely screened early films — both documentary and fiction — by some of the most important Tibetan and Chinese filmmakers working in Tibet today. Tibet in Harlem aims to offer audiences an experience that carries beyond the screen. Most screenings will be followed by panel discussions with the filmmakers, academics, and other leading figures in Tibetan film and culture. Over the course of the series there will be special events and receptions featuring Tibetan food and refreshments, as well as items for sale. Tibet in Harlem 2 is supported by the Henry Luce Foundation, The Shelley & Donald Rubin Foundation and other organizations. Tickets are sold on the basis of suggested donation and the proceeds from each event will be contributed to NGOs and organizations working inside Tibet, including Rabsal, the Tibet Village Project and Machik.
