kyounger Love the cinematography, love the music, love the story, and the beautiful Nepali people! What a beautifully shot film that took me on a journey of love, charity, change, and kindness! If you like independent films, watch this one! I've already watched it 5 times. :) I still can't get over the cinematography!

dyejoutah HIGHWAY TO DHAMPUS is a beautiful narrative about personal transformation. The characters come from a variety of backgrounds and their motivations are influenced by these backgrounds, but in the end redemption comes to each through choosing to be vulnerable, assimilating the past, and choosing to be better in the future. I found myself being introspective and understanding how I can be better based on what I experienced in those 100 minutes. Set in Nepal, the cinematography is breathtaking and vibrant. It was so stunning at times I felt like the landscape was the hero of the scene.I recommend this film!

pj brooks Highway to Dhampus, the English-Nepalese film, is a special film and a one to experience. Quiet, yet teeming with emotion and pathos... It's really the complete package: Super music, great scenery and well-acted by a cast of beautiful and sensitive actors, mostly unknown to me. The children in this film are the most natural and entertaining actors I've seen in a while. I was fortunate enough to catch this movie at The Rubin Museum of Art but It's definitely a film I'd like to see again and hope it will come to New York theaters. Starring: Rachel Hurd-Wood, Gunner Wright, Suesha Rana, Raj Ballav Koirala, Deshbhakta Khanal, Sayush Gurung Bajracharya, Sophie McShera, Vinzenz Kiefer, Masha Tokareva, Sunil Shrestha

tnoblake This is a beautiful film in every sense of the word. Set in breathtaking Nepal, the setting and camera work weave a spell. The landscape becomes a living character in the film and pulls each character in a different direction. The story revolves around a British socialite in need of redemption and purpose in life, an American photographer who has lost his faith in what matters in life, a Nepalese pilot with feet in two worlds, and the director of an isolated Nepalese orphanage who possesses a beautiful heart and quiet spirituality. The Nepalese actors are the standouts, telling the story of their characters and their people with genuine feeling and depth. Highway to Dhampus is a story of love, beauty, transformation and faith in a shared humanity. I laughed, cried, and was moved deeply by this beautiful little film.
