"Mountain Patrol"
Kekexili (dtr. Luk Chun, 2004)
90 mins.
Winner of Berlin International Film Festival's Don Quixote Award and Tokyo International Film Festival's Special Jury Prize "The mountains that rise from the Tibetan plateau make a suitably dramatic backdrop for this story about the murderous cost we humans exact on the natural world. Based on depressingly true events, Mountain Patrol: Kekexili tracks the heroic efforts of a small group of Tibetans struggling to keep the Tibetan antelope, or chiru, from extinction." (Manohla Dargis, New York Times)
All films have English subtitles.
Organizer and curator: Howard Y. F. Choy, Assistant Professor of Chinese, School of Modern Languages "Mountain Patrol" and "Riding Alone for Thousand Miles" are made possible with the support of the Education Office of the Consulate General of the People's Republic of China in Houston. Thanks to Ren Changsong, Lu Peiming, and Li Haizheng. Special thanks to the Student Success Center.
