Dholma: A Tibetan Woman’s Late Journey Into Literacy | SLICE | FULL DOCUMENTARY

In a remote Tibetan village, 60-year-old Dholma survives by spinning wool, but she cannot earn enough to support herself and has never married. Her life has been shaped by limited opportunities and by the expectations placed on women around her. Now, Dholma is learning to read Tibetan Buddhist texts. What begins as a religious practice gradually becomes something more personal: a way to access knowledge, gain confidence and carve out a space of her own. Through her quiet determination, the film explores how literacy can offer a form of freedom even late in life.
