3,500 Meters Above: Zanskar Valley's Guardians of Peace and Resilience

This film climbs to the remote Zanskar Valley high in the Indian Himalayas, a place seemingly untouched by time at thirty-five hundred metres. It follows a community of Buddhist nuns who sustain peace and resilience in a harsh, icy landscape. The photography captures both the beauty and the difficulty of life at altitude. It is a serene, contemplative watch about faith, endurance, and a hidden corner of the mountains. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
