The Cup (ཕོར་པ། or _Phörpa_) is a 1999 Tibetan-language film directed by Khyentse Norbu. The plot involves two young football-crazed Tibetan refugee novice monks in a remote Himalayan monastery in India who desperately try to obtain a television for the monastery to watch the 1998 World Cup final. The movie was submitted by Bhutan (its 1st submission) for Best Foreign Film at the 72nd Academy Awards but was not nominated.
The movie was shot in the Tibetan refugee village Bir in India (Himachal Pradesh) (almost entirely between Chokling Gompa and Elu Road).
Producer Jeremy Thomas had developed a relationship with Norbu when he was an advisor on Bertolucci's _Little Buddha_. Thomas later remembered his experience making the film:
> The director Khyentse Norbu is a Tibetan Lama who went to NYC film school, who wanted to make a movie, and I had become friendly with him. There was this charming story, which was a teaching for him but a story for everyone else, about little monks and the World Cup. It was shown in Director’s Fortnight at Cannes, and we brought a lot of the Tibetans to the screening and it was well received and sold all over the world. It was a very happy story for everybody involved.
