The film is a follow-up to 2005’s Dreaming Lhasa by the co-directors, which also premiered at TIFF. Their most recent documentary, When Hari Got Married (2012), narrates the story of a small-town taxi driver who has an arranged marriage with a woman he’s never met. And it is available for streaming on Netflix.
The duo are also the founders of the Dharamshala International Film Festival.
