3,500 Meters Above: Zanskar Valley’s Guardians of Peace and Resilience | SLICE | FULL DOCUMENTARY

[@deachenangmo5229]

Thank you Caroline!! For your unconditional support and love to all these beautiful nuns. Sending you lots of love and hugs from Ladakh 🙏

[@Tinjinladakh]

who is she?

[@AlokeSurin]

Perhaps the most heartfelt and well made documentary I have ever seen about winter in a small village in Zanskar. Caroline you have done a wonderful job of filming the lives of these truly hardy women of the nunnery. The narration, visuals, the audio, all are first rate. The changes which have come to hitherto remote communities in the high Himalaya is a fact that one cannot escape from. Roads, infrastructure, population growth, pollution seem to be inevitable as our world seems to be collapsing under the combined weight of progress and development. Though we may bemoan the disappearance of communities and ways of life that seemed in the past to have stood up to centuries of change, the revolution that we as homo sapiens have created for ourselves especially in the last 100 years or so in terms of technology and communication networks almost dictates that the drastic altering of human and animal lives and the balance of the environment will never be the same again.

I just got back from a visit to Tibet and Qomolangma. It’s a different country but same spirit and same people. I very much appreciated this movie ❤

[@stanwang64]

Zanskar is in ladakh india

[@AdventureSam]

@@stanwang64can you read? “It’s a different country” ….

[@stanwang64]

@@AdventureSam im just saying

[@firefly2967]

@@AdventureSam These people are Tibetan and it's their country. The CCP illegally occupied their country, India just allowed all the folks from Tibet who migrated due to repression to freely practice their religion and protect their culture in various parts of India. So it's not a different country, it belongs to Tibetan people. Having said that all the Tibetan/buddhist own and are entitled to stay anywhere in India since Buddhism is part of Indic Dharmic Sanatana Culture

[@stanwang64]

@@firefly2967 bro im ladakhi and we are indians who said we belong to tibet😂 Though our culture and religion is same that doesnt makes us tibetan and who said budhhism is linked with sanatan dharma get yourself out of dillusion

[@golmatol6537]

Wow !! I mean everything ... the trek, harsh ruggedness of the terrain, the sweet people, the cinematography, the joy and peace ... everything was wow !

Zanskar,those mountains and landscapes are phenomenally beautiful and the people too.

Heart felt thanks and gratitude to Caroline and the teams for helping them and giving them wonderful experience.

[@rdevjamwal123]

Hi Caroline, thank you so much for making this document. Once again. This is the second time I am watching the same documentary, but there it’s a sequel to a documentary that you have recorded already. I believe this is one of the most beautiful documentary, and when I saw this popped out on my screen, it was a beautiful experience which I want to live, so I am really thankful you when they live the life and made me equity with these beautiful nuns who are living their life in the most difficult situations. It was situation in their life, and that too, with a smile that they own.

[@jameslewis8827]

Full of positive emotions ..thank you so much for sharing their lives .

[@marziopigoni9701]

Slice, thank you for your wonderful documentary. I lived in those places in 1982, living with these population Is Refreshment for the spirit

[@vineetsharma3720]

One of the best documentary I have ever seen.

[@Houbaraoutdoors]

Search for india in motion

[@mountainair]

I recommend Tibet, the Path to Wisdom also from Slice (full documentary). It follows 1 woman Ani in her Himalayan wanderings in search of a secret yoga of magic heat. It seems like Lord of the Rings in the sense of it being a great adventure, but it's real world.

human bond is so beautiful! what a great documentary

[@Premchangal]

I have also stayed in Zanskar for a long time, these people are very kind and worshipers of humanity. Today basic facilities like roads, electricity have reached this isolated area. Because of them this culture is under threat, people will also become businessmen, the importance of money is increasing, I mean these people are also becoming subject to material pleasures. With time it will become difficult to maintain this simple world as it is today.😢

[@sangramsinghsingh8699]

[@buddhapiyao1315]

sometimes I feel how much we take things for granted- even very mundane stuff like using a toilet, taking a shower. for these people in the harsh weather and the region even a decent toilet and taking a bath would be a luxury. How would they react if they were offered a hot shower ? how would they react to a flush toilet. its tough living a life as these nuns. people like me who has always been a city dweller might not survive for more than a few days under these circumstances. the very bringing up we got is so self consuming- we study to earn and provide for unending needs whereas these people study to pray and bring peace to the world being devoid of even basic needs themselves. Lot of Respect to these women. God bless

[@rathiselvaraj1975]

'They made a clear statement, modernization will pollute their environment. Thats their fundamental belief.

[@pumpthewater419]

They would hate the modern amenities you find so dear. Because it takes them away from their peace.

[@StanzinKhenrab-s5b]

Incredible 🫡

[@Ds-oj5py]

I can't even imagine How Brave Dogra Hindu Warriors would be who traveled from the plains of Jammu region under the Leadership of General Zorawar Singh Kaluria and travelled through such landscape & conquered the region not only this but reached Tibet & fought bravely there as well & defeated Tibet Army, forcing Tibet to take help from the Chinese Army to defeat them. Unfortunately very little is written & known to people abt such great legends of India. Proud to be a Dogra myself.

[@mrinmoychoudhury3565]

Please do mention the year you have visited cause Zanskar Valley have changed a lot now. It will confuse people about the Present situation.

It’s back in 2020 not sure you can change the weather😂

"I do not like wearing same clothes after a bath...." "Sometimes on tours, travelling I do not even feel I am enjoying like everyone else while everybody else is just because of bathing & changing over issues! It feels like so sucking irksome!" 😢😢

All Himalayan regions are very similar to each others but lhadak , In Nepal Mustang and Dholpo are more similar than others places even dialects are almost same.

Mustang used to be ruled by Ladakh sometime in history

I hv seen ppl bathe in more than 2 days in winter....& even in cold waters...... I have this strange urge to bathe more often & regularly.... I find this really irritating to feel under arms.... sweating.....even though they may be scented with cologne or not even smelling bad...I do not know why I'd feel cold...& I have sweaters, I do not like wearing them.....any1.... who could help me out....I do not like dampness inside clothes.... 😢😢😢

[@jarosawwieczorek3684]

It is very difficult to determine or assess whether such life in a monastery still makes any sense in today's progressive world. For some it is backwardness, for others it is a retreat from this modern world, which is crowded and full of selfishness and greed. Everyone must make the decision themselves. One thing is certain. The beauty of nature in isolation for a certain time allows a person to remember that everything he does and strives for will sooner or later pass away with his death. 🏔️🙏
