Synopsis
A group of Tibetan villagers leave their families and homes in the small village of Nyima to make a Buddhist “bowing pilgrimage” — laying their bodies flat on the ground after every few steps — along the thousand miles road to Lhasa, the holy capital of Tibet. Though united in their remarkable devotion, each of the travelers embarks on this near impossible journey for very personal reasons. One traveler needs to expunge bad family karma, a butcher wants to cleanse animal bloodstains from his soul, another nearing his life’s end, hopes that the prostrations will break the chain of cause and effect determined by his life’s actions.
