Flying Dogs
Feature | 105 min | Drama
Flying dogs is an arthouse/drama feature film set amongst the indigenous, nomadic Nuosu people in the Chinese high mountains of Yunnan and Sichuan.
From the moment an eccentric yet introverted shepherd boy from the Himalayas causes an accident that leaves his older brother disabled, he pledges his life to taking care of him. But when he meets the freethinking Noor and moves with her to the UK, he will first have to come to terms with his past before he can build a future with her in this strange new world.
Flying dogs is all about self-acceptance, self-forgiveness and learning to stand up for yourself, even when social pressure keeps pushing you down. Atjeh, the protagonist, is not only dealing with his feelings of guilt toward his brother, but also with the clan’s opposition of him marrying a non-Nuosu girl, the consequences of emigrating to another country, and reshaping his identity.
Scenario by Veerle Ackerstaff in cooperation with Anzi Aku
