Buddhist nuns travel for the first time: A touching journey through India

Caroline Riegel, global filmmaker, had promised her Buddhist nun (bhikshuni) friends she would travel across India with them. As the seasons go by, they discover for the first time their own country: from India's Himalayas to its Andaman Islands, from chaotic crowds to peaceful prayers, from the isolation of a mountain winter to a globalized life -- most of all, a land far from the India we know.
