2008 LVHIFF PRINCE OF THE HIMALAYAS

American Immigrant Filmmakers on Profile | Hawaii PREMIERE

Prince Lhamoklodan learns of his father’s mysterious death and returns home to find his uncle has taken the throne--and the widowed queen. The dead emperor's son wants revenge, but how can he exact it without devastating his mother? In the struggle to face his destiny and fight his demons, a new king is born. Set in ancient Tibet, THE PRINCE OF THE HIMALAYAS is a visually ravishing historical epic with stunning scenery, rich color, and lush costuming. Setting Shakespeare's Hamlet in a completely new context is richly suggestive of the play's enduring relevance for the modern world. As the proto-typical tale of oedipal anxiety, or of the terrifying possibilities of taking action in the social world, this film re-invents and refreshes a story we thought we knew.
