Himalaya

Is a movie from Tibet.

The movie is about the struggles of a village in the Himalayans in picking a new chef when their chef expired early. They need a chef to help led their carvans into the Himalayan mountains, where the led Yaks carrying Rocks of salt to sell so their village can trade it for grain. This is an annual event that happens so that the village won't starve during the winter. But there is a major misunderstanding between the past chef and the herdsman who is being picked to led the carvan. The old chef wants karma (herdsman) not to led so he doesn't everything in his power to make it so. And it works, even though it was hard. Karma had the problem of not lessening to the Gods in leading his people so tthe old chef was always on his tail and never far off. At the end the old chef was able to except that Karma would be the next leader/chef of the caravan.

It was very good and it also showed the hard path that the Himalayans take in order to protect their people.

One good piece of advise that the old chef was giving karma when he was giving him his blessings was that he needs to be able to lead his people but always be lead by the Lord. He also said that every good leader disobeyed at first. So even though Karma didnt want to follow the Gods at first he learned to and was going to become a great leader
