Summary
- "Film brings to light the story of group of elderly Buddhist nuns from Ladakh, who represent the last generation of unordained and uneducated women in robes. They have led quiet lives in isolated high mountains working as domestice helps and road construction laborers. Neglected by religious and social systems for centures, the new Nyerma nunnery is their last call for dignity, enhancement and purification of their religious status"--Videodisc container.
