The Story Ten-year old Siddharth is traumatized when he witnesses a religious ceremony gone terribly wrong. During this sacred ritual, his mother is consumed by flames and his father is horribly burnt. Once a normal, outgoing boy, Siddharth is transformed by the tragedy into an introverted child of a few words. While awaiting and praying for his fathers recovery, Siddharth is forced to live with his uncle. Continuing the inexplicable downward spiral of his life, young Siddharth is subjected to abuse from his aunt. The only bright spot in his life is the warmth he receives from his cousin, Druki. Despite the sad circumstances that have caused it, she is delighted to have Siddharth living in her home and existing in her life. One evening, as she is preparing for bed, Druki asks her mother about the death of Siddharth mother. Searching for words to give peace to her daughter, the woman tells Druki that God took Siddharths mother away because he loved her so much. Siddharth learns of this and is puzzled, wondering how it is possible that God loved his mother more than he. The question burns in his mind like a sliver and, try as he might, he cannot banish the tormenting thought. In his young wisdom, he finally realizes that the only one who does know the answer is God Himself. And thus begins Siddharths epic journey to find God and pose the question to him. With a childlike innocence, he begins this journey by asking those around him where God lives. Since no one can tell him where God lives, he decides to find out for himself. He begins on this path by watching those around him whose lives appear to be spiritual, feeling they may know where God resides. He visits temples, follows religious processions, spies on priests always searching for clues that will lead him to God always to no avail. In the depths of depression, the pointer to the direction he must go, finally and unexpectedly comes to him in the form of an old man who says he knows where God lives. The old man explains that, of course, God lives in the middle of the Himalayas. Enlightened and excited, he now prepares to embark upon the high path to Gods home. As they learn about this, his cousin Druki and Siddharths best friend, Raju, implore him to take them along. At first he resists, but when he understands that they too have questions for God, there is no way he can refuse. And so, the three set out to find God in his home. They begin their arduous trek riding atop a bus. But, before long, the bus passengers grow suspicious and they are forced to continue on foot. Along the way a helper comes to them almost as if he has been sent to do so. Ali, a teenager who works at a highway motel, gains them passage on an Army truck, also joining them as he, too, has questions for God and is inspired by Siddharths plan. A harrowing struggle ensues as they ford a river, desperately scavenge for food and dare the howling winds of the Himalayas. As they continue their journey into the clouds further challenges assail and assault the quartet yet none can deter them. And then, true tragedies strike Raju plunges through melted snow and drowns. In the thin atmosphere, Druki draws her final breadth. And even Ali vanishes into the consuming mists of the upper reaches of the Himalayas. At last, Siddharth alone reaches the mountain respite that is Gods true home. In triumph and humility, Siddharth poses his questions to God questions that all mankind has pondered since time immemorial. In a scene as powerful as Lord Krishnas narration of the Bhagwad Gita to Arjuna, Siddharths life is forever changed and so shall our viewers as they come to bathe in the joys of Gods revelation to this simple boy. Triumph is Siddharths at last for he has, with intrepidity, determination and pureness of spirit, sought God where he lives. And in that triumph, he comes to know the greatest blessing of them all peace. Om shanti, shanti, shanti, Om.

  • awesome

  • i like it

  • wow.. really clear! Look forward to seeing more such video's. Best wishes from Bhutan Lhayul Tours & Travels family.

  • location looks very good ... movie of this caliber could do so much better if renowned actors were playing ... the emotions and dialogue look fake ... and BTW movie was directed by an Indian Director Sanjay Srinivas ... am happy that he made the movie in Nepali ... unlike some of our politicians who took oath in Hindi ... Hindi is not our language ... all conversations made outside Nepal even with Indians must be made in English ... since we are taught English as a second language !!!

  • Why can't Nepali director make a movie like caravan or the himalayas that was nominated for the best foreign language movie in oscars???!!!Its's amazing how the french director made movie look so real with mostly local ppl from the native dolpa acting in the movie..... looking at this trailer....i can say that the name of the movie n the story does not go well...n the actors do not represent the ppl living in himalayas. n wats all this wid ramayan thing in himalayas???!!!
