It's not always easy to follow the story thread of this beguiling film, but it has such a bewitching atmosphere that you may well be tempted to watch it over and over again.

It's quite beautiful. The director, Khyentse Norbu, will hold a shot for a long time and let you luxuriate in the setting.

Recruiting a cast comprised of genuine nonprofessionals and the talents of Taiwanese cinematographer Mark Lee-Ping Bing... Norbu charts an inspired, fittingly meditative journey to enlightenment.

A-

I loved the dreamy film for not watering things down and letting the viewer identify with the protagonist trying to save his life the old-fashioned Buddhist way.

This remarkable film from Nepal is just as agreeably enigmatic as its label would suggest-a combination ethnographic/spiritual/wryly comic "quest" tale about living in the present, and how difficult that can be.

Fell asleep many times because it was so safe to fall asleep. Watched twice, the sense of beauty, love for Nepal, and beyond was evident throughout. One needs time and mental space to immerse in this spiritual treat.
