Lunana: A Yak in the Classroom – 6

A sweet, rather predictable tale of a cynical and lazy city teacher who is assigned to “the most remote school in the world” and discovers teaching, and himself. It was lovely to see the ghos and the landscapes of Bhutan, and it brought back memories of my year in Libya with the Peace Corps; but it is hard to see this standing in the company of the other Oscar foreign film nominees.
