The Visit

2020 • Directed by

Kristi Tethong

An impressionistic haiku-like film, illustrating a man's first visit to his father's occupied homeland Tibet. Assembled using 16mm hand-processed film, ethereal road trip footage and film archives, The Visit artfully explores a stifled rage, too dangerous to show, and the profound effects of intergenerational loss and longing that belong to the liminal space of exile.
