An epic trek through the Himalayas that explores the tension between tradition and change within a close-knit Buddhist community facing both physical and social trials.

As the denizens of a Tibetan village prepare for their arduous annual trek to exchange salt for grain, the community's allegiances are split between aging chieftain Tinle and rebellious young Karma. Tinle tries to maintain his clout and preserve obedience to ancient customs when Karma challenges the old man's power.
