The Cup


Set in a Tibetan monastery, we follow the attempts of a group of teenage monks, as they try to watch the world soccer cup final. There is no television set in the monastery, so their main problem is obtaining a TV set and satellite dish, which is against the wishes of their elders, resulting in a gentle comedy.
