Good

I think it is the first film I've seen from Nepal, which I believe is a country that does not often produce a lot of movies anyway. (It is not, however, the first film I've seen that is set in a part of the Himalayas, which, if you remember, is shared by at least four different countries.) This one ups the ante by setting its story high up in the mountains of the Himalayas, which presumably makes everything harder – equipment problems, casting, etc. This part of South Asia, the people don't look, well, Indian, but have Asiatic features to their appearances (despite the fact that they speak Hindi) ... which adds another layer of novelty to the experience of watching this film.
