Kunsel is an introverted young woman living in the Tibetan immigrant community of west Toronto, where she commits petty theft and spies on her neighbours through a camcorder. When newcomer Passang moves into the neighbourhood with her much older husband, Kunsel is gradually drawn out of her solitary, watchful existence.

Titled after the apartment complex address around which the film is set, Kunsang Kyirong’s auspicious debut feature is a richly detailed portrait of Toronto’s Tibetan Canadian community, as well as a fascinating character study of two women alienated in more ways than one. Reminiscent of the icy post-Hitchcockian thrillers of Claude Chabrol, this is the rare film whose enigmas only deepen as it unfolds.
