Ambitious detective Kinley investigates the disappearance and death of a Buddhist nun. His number one suspect is a beautiful and independent girl named Choden, whom the locals suspect to have been involved in the crime. As Kinley wonders what trick to use to get evidence of her guilt, she asks him to accompany her on a journey ...
The film combines a realistic image of the country and its social problems with the poetics of a crime story and a hypnotic story about the search for spirituality. A metaphysical road movie in exotic settings, with a wonderful music by Tashi Dorji.
