MANAKAMANA – Documentary - Not Rated – Candid film of people in Nepal traveling by a modern cable car up to the ancient Hindu temple of the goddess, Manakamana. Villagers, worshipers and tourists alike are now able to take this 10 minute ride over several hills, beautiful Sal forests and rivers. They even transport the animals used for temple sacrifices on special cars. Candidly shot, each trip up or down varies from a meditative moment to casual encounters of friends or family. Unusual and thought provoking.
Manakamana-Documentary (NR) 118 minutes
