In following up to my earlier post, I am pleased to report that I have now completed a new film "Sky Burial set in Northern Tibet."
Sky Burial follows the ritual of "jha-tor", the giving of alms to birds in a northern Tibetan monastery. The bodies of the dead are offered to the vultures as a final act of kindness to living beings.
