Synopsis

An ambitious, modern-minded young Tibetan entrepreneur named Tenzin finds his fate is marked when he begins to see strange visions as he goes about his business trying to establish a coffee shop in Kathmandu. Unable to ignore these supernatural portents, he seeks the help of a holy man who tells him that he will soon die unless he finds a special woman known as a "dakini" to help save him. Tenzin will find his increasingly desperate search will bring him face to face with his own neuroses and the limitations of modern life as well as initiate an awakening that reveals the age-old Himalayan respect for and celebration of the power of feminine energy that is needed in our own volatile era.

The ultra modern melds with the ancient mystical in a film sumptuously shot with widescreen vistas to capture the beauty of the locations with dreamlike sequences that should be enjoyed on the big screen.
