- **Event Name**: "A Yak in the Classroom": Bhutan's first Oscar-nominated drama
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 28 Mar, 2026 at 07:30 pm (+07:00)
- **Event Description**: A small Buddhist nation long isolated in the Himalayas between China and India, Bhutan navigates the passage to internal modernity and global integration by using the precepts of
‘Gross National Happiness’: cultural and environmental preservation, economic equity and sustainability, and clean and transparent governance. The country's youth wrestle with an education often unsuitable for job prospects, urban migration, social temptations, and the waning of traditions

Filmed in a real location as named in the movie title and a directorial debut of a local Bhutanese, Pawo Choyning Dorji, "Lunana: A Yak in the Classroom" (2019, 109 min) is the country's first Oscar-nominated drama. This charming, quietly funny culture-clash film, about a young teacher in Bhutan who is posted to a remote mountain village, is a thoughtful exploration of happiness and community values.
