@brian_gettler@mas.toI'm kicking off reading week with some actual reading: Wickwire's highly regarded At the Bridge (2019). I'm looking forward to discussing it with the brilliant group of grad students I have in this year's seminar towards the end of the month.

@teledyn@mstdn.caA #cinema #documentary #anthropology question:
Years ago I saw a low-budget doc about anthropologists visiting Zanskar #Tibet before the first Chinese road arrived. They interviewed the king, a doctor, and a kind elder who only wanted to talk gossip and kept refilling their barley beers.
Today all I can find by Search are glowing big-budget praises of China in Tibet.
Does anyone else recall that earlier doc?
