Tukdam: Between Worlds (Nepal)
(90 min; 2022; English)
Director: Donagh Coleman

The film investigates the Tibetan phenomenon of tukdam, in which a realised meditation master dies in a consciously controlled manner, their body defying decay for weeks afterwards. Juxtaposing scientific and Tibetan perspectives, the documentary explores this enigmatic bridge between life and death
