O tomto filmu

In a remote village in the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan, teenagers Gyembo and Tashi aimlessly roam while their father meticulously polishes the ancient relics inside the altar of their family monastery. This family has been taking care of the monastery from one generation to the next for thousands of years. Following tradition, the father wants his son Gyembo to carry on the family tradition - but Gyembo has other desires. The film through bittersweet micro-situations takes us inside a Bhutanese family where the contrasting dreams of two generations are caught in a time clash.
