- **Event Description**: Join us Thursday, March 19, at 6 pm, for a Whole Grain: Experiments in Film &amp; Video screening of 100 Sunset (Canada, 2025, video, 99 min.), Tibetan-Canadian filmmaker Kunsang Kyirong’s thrilling debut feature set in a Tibetan immigrant community outside of Toronto.

About the Film:
Kunsel (Tenzin Kunsel) is an introverted young woman living in the Tibetan immigrant community of west Toronto, where she commits petty theft and spies on her neighbors through a camcorder. However, when newcomer Passang (Sonam Choekyi) moves into the neighborhood with her much older husband, Kunsel is gradually drawn out of her solitary, watchful existence. The presence of a dhikuti—a communal lending practice in which participants contribute a fixed monthly sum to be redistributed back to community members—adds a $200,000 payout to an already volatile mix of intrigue and betrayal.

Titled after the apartment complex address around which the film is set, Kunsang Kyirong’s auspicious debut feature is a richly detailed portrait of Toronto’s Tibetan Canadian community, as well as a fascinating character study of two women alienated in more ways than one. Reminiscent of the icy post-Hitchcockian thrillers of Claude Chabrol, this is the rare film whose enigmas only deepen as it unfolds. (Description from the Vancouver International Film Festival.)

“At once precise and suggestive, 100 Sunset vibrates on dual frequencies of intimacy and unease that make it one of the most accomplished Canadian debuts in recent memory” (Toronto Star).
