In the remote, snow-covered Zanskar valley of the Himalayas, a small community of Buddhist nuns maintains a life of harsh, yet peaceful, devotion. Cut off from the outside world by the winter, these women are the spiritual heart of their village, offering prayers and guidance to the local people. As the modern world begins to encroach on their isolated existence, the nuns face the challenge of preserving their traditions and ensuring the future of their community, all while navigating the profound, often difficult, realities of life in one of the most inaccessible places on Earth.
