They are the happiest people on earth. <br>Possessions and wealth don't make you happy and they are the living proof.😊❤

This is something else. The severity and the innocence at the same time, got me tears.

I just got back from a visit to Tibet and Qomolangma. It’s a different country but same spirit and same people. I very much appreciated this movie ❤

I love how Caroline speaks fluent Ladakhi with the people. At first I wondered if a translator was also travelling with them, but I was amazed to see her fluency. As someone from Ladakh myself, It truly reflects her love and dedication to Ladakh and the nuns, allowing her to converse without any language barrier.

Perhaps the most heartfelt and well made documentary I have ever seen about winter in a small village in Zanskar. Caroline you have done a wonderful job of filming the lives of these truly hardy women of the nunnery. The narration, visuals, the audio, all are first rate. The changes which have come to hitherto remote communities in the high Himalaya is a fact that one cannot escape from. Roads, infrastructure, population growth, pollution seem to be inevitable as our world seems to be collapsing under the combined weight of progress and development. Though we may bemoan the disappearance of communities and ways of life that seemed in the past to have stood up to centuries of change, the revolution that we as homo sapiens have created for ourselves especially in the last 100 years or so in terms of technology and communication networks almost dictates that the drastic altering of human and animal lives and the balance of the environment will never be the same again.

The pregnancy and birth was a real surprise, good to hear that she and the baby survived the disappearance. It sounds unimaginable that someone could give birth alone then flee in the night with the newborn so far up in the mountains without costing both their lives.<br>Perhaps she had somewhere she could hide in the village until she could travel to Leh.
