Two daughters of a Nepalese Tamang-family prepare for their studies abroad. They are as anxious to improve their lives, as they are scared in face of great uncertainties. Their mothers and grandmothers have made great sacrifices and lived simple lives of hardship for their kin to have this opportunity. An incredibly confident camera work allows specifically for the grandmother’s tales to carry a weight that almost makes the essence of her life palpable to the audience. A film about the interconnections of family, education, and female emancipation.
