Sikkim

Tucked away in the North-Eastern Himalayas, Sikkim with an area of 7300 sq. km has traditionally been looked upon as abode of spiritual tranquillity. Hinduism is the religion of the vast majority of its inhabitants. Lepen has and Bhutias professing Buddhism form the next dominant group. A protectorate of India, since 1890, this special relationship continued after independence. The Sikkim ruler, known by convention as the Maharaja was permitted to call himself the Chogyal in 1965. The Indian Parliament passed the 38th Constitution amendment bill on April 23rd, 1975 which declared Sikkim as the 22nd state of Indian Union. This film narrates the political history of Sikkim right from 1890.

Tingvong: A Lepcha Village in Sikkim
Titre original: Tingvong: A Lepcha Village in Sikkim ( Film )
The film illustrates the changes the Lepcha of the Dzongu reserve, North Sikkim, have been through in the last 60 years. From the 1940s, the Lepcha of Tingvong village gradually abandoned hunting, gathering and the slash and burn cultivation of dry rice, and became settled agriculturalists. Entire mountains sides were converted to cardamom and terraced for the cultivation of irrigated paddy. The irrigated rice and the cardamom cash crop not only brought the Lepcha within Sikkim’s market economy but helped create a surplus which could among other things be invested in religion. In the 1940s, the Lepcha of Tingvong embraced Buddhism and all its complex rituals without however abandoning their strong shamanic traditions. Today, both forms of rituals amiably co-exist in the village. This film is part of a long-term visual anthropology training project for the tribal communities of Sikkim.
