Lunana: A Yak in the Classroom
| PG | Dzongkha (Bhutanese) with English subtitles

Ugyen, a trainee teacher, is sent to a regional school to test his skills in a classroom.

His dream is to travel to Australia and swim at Bondi Beach but his first school is 5000 metres above sea-level and based in a village with a population of 50. And a yak.

This is a genuinely lovable film; an absolute gem that’s my new favourite 2022 movie. - Graeme Tuckett, STUFF
