Namaste Himalaya - How a village in Nepal opened the world to us

About This Movie

So, 'Namaste Himalaya' is quite the watch, especially if you're into documentaries that dive deeper than just surface-level exploration. It unfolds during the pandemic, which adds this heavy yet poignant layer to the narrative. The filmmakers, Anna and Michael, find themselves in Nepal, a place where the city's hustle gets replaced by the serene if not stark, reality of the mountains. You feel this atmospheric shift as they encounter villagers who’ve built makeshift homes amidst the lockdown. The pacing feels reflective, allowing you to soak in the scenery and the villagers' stories, which are both humbling and heartwarming. It’s really about resilience and the human spirit, a theme that feels especially poignant these days.
