Pema is a Tibetan whose plans for the future are being thwarted by his past. He is his parents' only son, and they want him to return to the village of his birth, marry a local girl and take care of them. He and his sisters spent their youth in a children's home in the city, while his parents stayed behind in their remote Himalayan village. Together with his sisters, one of whom was adopted by a Dutch couple and grew up in the Netherlands, Pema goes to visit the distant village. The only way to their family's home is a 10-day trek through the mountains.
After a warm reunion, tensions quickly rise: the parents expect their only son to accept his responsibility, get married and tend to their land. But Pema can't imagine life in this isolated place devoid of computers or books, and he also wants to save his sisters from a similar fate. With spectacular cinematography of the mountainous landscape as its background, this documentary presents a sensitive generational conflict that reveals the contrasts between choosing for a primitive life in the mountains, the future that parents want for their children, and the extinction of traditions. Pema and his Westernized sisters don't want to abandon their parents, but they also look forward to their own, modern existence.

Its unfortunate that his parents are guilt tripping almost all their children.

I felt the struggle between the parents and the son, they sent to the city for a better life and now they want them to come back and take care of the parents. They have gotten used to a life in the city and it is unfair to expect them to uproot their lives at command. I feel bad for the eldest sister, she looks older than 26. And what a pity to want to keep birthing just for survival

Wow..can u imagine..2 aeroplanes and STILL they have to walk for 10 daysto get to their birthplace!!! Just WOW!! How beautiful is it though?! ❤

They basically got rid of there kids. They grow up in an educated world and now expect them to follow a tradition they don’t know. I feel bad for everyone involved. But they dump their kids at an orphanage.

I have a strong feeling one way of what I think he should do, but then I completely see the other side. This is a crazy dilemma to have.

8:14 telling a child your dying because he’s not choosing the life you force on him is insane
