As Day Goes By

About This Movie

As Day Goes By is a quietly contemplative documentary that invites you into the life of Kathmandu. Ngima Gelu Sherpa captures these two women, casually but with intent, cutting grass - it’s more than just a chore, it’s a meditative ritual against the backdrop of an evolving city. The pacing feels organic, mirroring the rhythm of everyday life. There's a distinct sense of place, with the sounds of the city and nature blending into a kind of soundtrack. The practical effects here are the raw, unembellished realities of labor and community. It’s all about that simple yet profound connection to land and livelihood. The performances are genuine, not staged—just life unfolding in its own time.
