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

And, like her famous namesake, Diana will also be dealing with chaos in her life. It's through Diana's eyes that we witness the rollercoaster of her parent’s marriage and what she learns about the nature of being in love.

Gavin from Onerahi

Did everyone get rid of the Trolley bus?

They were even better than EV's, no charging battery losses, no mining for rare chemicals, just a long bamboo pole and off they went.
