Synopsis
When his father dies, anti-regime partisan Chandra must travel to his remote mountain village after nearly a decade away. Little Pooja is anxiously awaiting the man she thinks is her father, but she’s confused when Chandra arrives with Badri, a young street orphan rumoured to be his son. Chandra must face his brother Suraj, who was on the opposing side during the Nepalese civil war. The two brothers cannot put aside political feelings while carrying their father’s body down the steep mountain path to the river for cremation. Suraj storms off in a rage, leaving Chandra with no other men strong enough to help. Under pressure from the village elders, Chandra must seek help from outside the village to obey the rigid caste and discriminatory gender traditions he fought to eliminate during the war. Chandra searches for a solution in neighboring villages, among the police, guests at a local wedding, and rebel guerrillas…

Synopsis
A real estate developer, on the brink of bankruptcy, travels with his wife to a lavish and remote property to close a prospective deal in a last ditch attempt to save his life as he knows it. But in the end, what transpires within the walls of that glass house where six lives intersect, has little to do with money, and everything to do with the human condition: lives and psyches are laid bare, others are obscured, and still others are simply left to wonder at just how narrow is the line between what is real, and what is perceived.

Synopsis
A Nurse, an Ambulance Driver, a Gymnast, and a Coach have formed a dead persons’ substitute company called “Alps”. They are a company for hire, playacting deceased persons in their daily routines, for the benefit of their grieving relatives, friends, and colleagues.
The range and variety of their roles is quite wide, although they don’t just take any offers. The substitutes have to identify with the substituted dead persons and be inspired by their past lives. The roles are researched, rehearsed, and performed in minute detail.
The company operates illegally, under a scrupulous discipline regime demanded by their leader, the Ambulance Driver. He has reserved for him alone, as his code name, the name of Alps’ great pinnacle, the Mont Blanc.
