Asia Society cordially invites you to the New York Premiere of Beneath Everest - Nepal Reborn

Filmed over four years
during the height of the Maoist insurgency and Nepal’s historic transition
from a 240-year old monarchy to a new Federal Democratic Republic,
Beneath Everest
is a journey that exposes the causes of the insurgency and critically questions
the use and continuation of violence as well as challenges its justification.
The film encourages ordinary Nepalis to tell their stories and share their
hopes and aspirations for a New Nepal as the country begins the long journey
towards sustainable peace, political stability, and an inclusive society.

A Q&A with director Tulsi Bhandari will
follow the screening.
