Tenzin Dazel (FRA): From Paris Fashion to Indie Film

Tenzin Dazel spent years in the heart of the Paris fashion world, working for names like Ann Demeulemeester and Jérôme Dreyfuss. But she realized that designing bags wasn't enough—she wanted to design narratives.

In this honest conversation, Dazel takes us behind the scenes of her journey from a fashion student in France to becoming one of the most distinct voices in Tibetan cinema. She shares the gritty reality of making her first film, Royal Cafe, with zero budget, and the massive undertaking of her new feature, Dharamsala.

In this episode, we talk about:

  • Fashion vs. Film: Why she left a promising career in luxury fashion to tell stories that matter.
  • Breaking the Mold: Dealing with the "bad girl" label for smoking, speaking her mind, and refusing to fit the "perfect Tibetan" stereotype.
  • The Reality of Filmmaking: The immense mental and physical toll of directing Dharamsala, dealing with budget constraints, and the "burnout" that followed.
  • Authenticity: Why she insists on showing Tibetans as complex, flawed humans rather than idealized figures.

Listen now to hear how one woman is redefining what it means to be a Tibetan artist in the diaspora.
