Tsering Rhitar Sherpa

Young Pooja lives with her mother in a village in Nepal. Though saddened by the death of her grandfather, she is secretly thrilled at the prospect of meeting the man she hopes may be her father — Chandra, a former Maoist guerrilla who is returning home after a decade-long civil conflict.

After a revered abbess dies, two young nuns named Karma and Sonam journey from Mustang to Kathmandu to recover money needed for reincarnation rituals, uncovering unexpected truths about the world beyond her secluded nunnery.

A couple’s desire for a son leads them to seek supernatural blessings, but when tragedy strikes, they turn to a spiritual healer whose own crisis of faith draws all three into a dramatic conflict between belief, desire, and reality.

We are in the year 2001, a temporary ceasefire brings a much-needed break to a small war-torn village in Northern Nepal, bringing much joy among the residents. Prakash and Kiran, two young close friends, are also starting to feel the change in the air. Though they are divided by caste and social creed, they remain inseparable, and start raising a hen given to Prakash by his sister, with hopes to save money by selling her eggs. However, the hen goes missing. To find it, they embark on a journey, innocently unaware of the tyranny brought by the fragile ceasefire.

The Lama Mani is a storytelling technique that is used to illustrate the Buddhist view of the universe, including ethics and cosmology, often told with thangkas as visual supports.

The Tibetan belief of curing diseases through going into a trance by invoking certain spirits/protectors has been practiced and socially accepted for over a millennium. This art is mostly inherited by the healer’s son – sometimes by a daughter, who hereditarily posses this inborn channel which only needs to be opened to be initiated as a healer. With a history of 13 generation of continuous spiritual healers in the family, 78-year-old Pao Wangchuk is frustrated with the fact that his son is incapable of continuing the family legacy.
