We follow Tashi, a young Buddhist monk on a journey home through the Himalayas, witnessing the present day life and customs of the Kingdom of Mustang, one of the best preserved traditional Tibetan communities in the world. It is a story of coming of age for Tashi, a story of a small nation struggling to keep its identity since opening of borders 22 years ago. A story of a conflict between spiritualism and materialism. Tashi, a young Buddhist monk faces the most important decision in his life - whether to devote his life to serving as a monk, or to leave the monastery and return to everyday life.
