In a polyandrous Himalayan village, pregnant PEMA faces scrutiny as her husband vanishes. With her monk brother-in-law, her de facto spouse, she seeks him in the wild, unraveling her own self-discovery along the journey. The 'Best International Feature Film' category of the 97th Academy Awards in 2025.. Shambhala is an experience. A nicely paced movie, with a very simple story of a simple everyday character.The story takes place in a rural Himalayan region of Nepal, but is highly relatable to anyone who has ever struggled for their truth specially every Nepali. Without a hint of doubt, I say that "Shambhala is the best Nepali movie ever made" experience from a simple story.It showed me part of Nepal, which I have never even imagined it existed.Just watch it!
