ItalianoSarita
By Sergio Basso
Synopsis
In 1990, one-sixth of the Bhutanese population was exiled as a result of simply asking their monarch for democratic rights. Tell Me Who I Am follows the struggles faced by Sarita, a 13-year-old girl born in Khudunabari, a refugee camp in Nepal where more than 100,000 Bhutanese exiles live. Now they will be “resettled.” Thousands of families will be forced to emigrate, and their Lhotshampa identity will disappear forever.
