The Monk and the Gun synopsis:
In 2006, Bhutan embraces all things modern, with the introduction of internet, television, and democracy. To prepare citizens for voting, authorities set up a mock election, but the rural population remains skeptical. As an election supervisor travels to remote areas where religion often outweighs politics, he uncovers that a monk is planning a secretive ceremony on election day. This charming insight into a fascinating country won the Special Jury Prize at the Rome Film Festival and the Audience Choice Award at the Vancouver International Film Festival.
