Brief Introduction：
This program tells a story about average Tibetan people who worship the Holy Mountain. They are devoted religious enthusiasts and this program offers a unique insight into their lives. Kailash mountain is venerated as the original holy mountain of Tibetan Buddhism, Hinduism, and Bonism. Claiming the highest status among Buddhist sites, this mountain is regularly worshipped by people from all over the world. 2002 is the Year of the Horse on the Tibetan calendar, so making a pilgrimage to this mountain is supposed to bring 12 times the spiritual benefits of any other year. Pilgrims visitng the mountain place sutra streamers there on the 15th of April (on the Tibetan Calendar). This ritual is widely considered a monumental event that can't be missed. On that day, nearly 30,000 believers gather at the foot of Kailash Peak. This program follows a group of worshippers from the Nagqu Region. They started from the distant Amdo County, and rode in a group of five trucks to the remote mountain. One couple among them brought a little baby who was less than one month old. The sincerity of these worshippers comes across in this footage.
Traveling long distances, eating against the wind, and sleeping in the dew, the magnificent scenes of hanging the sutra streamers, and the arduous process of circulating the mountain are all truly and vividly exhibited in this film.
