Ashmina (2019)


Teenaged girl skips out of school to help her family earn money packing parachutes for paragliding tourists in her Nepalese village.

Beautiful small scale film is lovely slice of life revealing what it’s like for the people in the far off places we travel to. As good as the film is, I think this would be better longer because watching it felt like I was spending just as much time with Ashmina as I would if I hired her family.

My desire for a feature aside, this is one to look for especially if you can see it on a big screen where you can really see how special the film is.
