- Опубликовано: 6 мар 2020
- At an altitude of nearly 4,000 meters, Sking is one of the most isolated villages in the Himalayan region of Zanskar. In just three months, from August to October, the Zanskaris have to harvest and store all their food for the coming year. All the women-young and old alike-work nonstop, from dawn to dusk, and worry about the arrival of winter.
Filmed from the point of view of a subjective camera by a young female ethnologist, "Himalaya, Land of Women" offers a sensitive and poetic immersion in the life of four generations of women during harvesting season. We share their rare intimacy and gradually grow attached to them.

You're lucky ,,,you understand ,what a hard life is.,,.and many of us humans ,,wouldn't know a hard life,if it fell down on us..that was a great vid- doco,,about hard working, honest,beautiful people.
"We live to die, meet people to leave them and own things to loose them" - so beautifully said. True of our existence.
DEAREST SLICE , HELLO , HOW DO YOU DO ? YOU ARE TRULY BLESSED , TO BE A PART WITH THESE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE . THE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE AND SCENERY IS TO DIE FOR . I WOULD BE HAPPIER AND FEEL MORE AT HOME WITH THESE PEOPLE , THAN ELSEWHERE FROM THIS WORLD . THE ENTIRE WORLD SHOULD BE BLESSED LIKE THESE PEOPLE . THIS IS GRAND LIVING FOR ME . WITH LOVE , PRAYERS , HUGS , AND SWEET KISSES , FROM ME , AND MY FAMILY , " THE ROTHSCHILD'S . " FAREWELL MY DEAR . 😊😍😘
And read moronic comments on youtube.
@@tomfisher9089 nothing but rude, snide comments out of you. What's up with that?
@@tomfisher9089 True. And you have managed about three or four yourself This one is an example. It's time for you to close your mouth.

I would really like to appreciate the work that this woman had put into this video, I belong to this Himalayan region of Zanskar and never felt the beauty of my place until I saw this video, now I'm realizing how unique and beautiful my place is, I'm happy to realize that this stillness and its cut off from the outer world makes it more ravishing and charming. Thank you so much for this video and I would really like to appreciate the fact that she spoke the local language soo well❤
What a lovely comment to read. ❤️
The richness in gratitude is amazing that is shown here.
We must be more in gratitude and humble of the gifts we have been given. In the states it's hard not to be free from the evils of big government and the desire to control people. I'm sad that it's not as happy in the modern technology world as it should be with the abuse of authority.
May God bless you and your families through the difficult times you may have. 🙏 ❤it.
Salam ju sahi zaasi yang he..
You have the same name....
It was what I was wondering about watching the youngster
I am blown away by how lovingly this documentary is made. Thank you for such respect, sensitivity and affection.
So was I until the moment she denied a blind, 80 year old woman's request for her sheepskin to lay down on. Turned out she was at the end of her life and worked until the very end but when she asked for her sheepskin to lay down on as the grass was prickly, the journalist did nothing. I found that quite heartbreaking.
@@Tismesue I have to agree, even before it was mentioned she died I thought that. Ultimately, the journalist made it about herself. Soliciting all the praise about being their sister blabla and all the tear jerking crap about her. get over yourself lady
@@Tismesue she's not a journalist, she's an ethnologist - she studies people in different cultures. 💖
I agree with you regarding the sheepskin, it was just behind the grandmother 😔
Apart from that I think she was excellent.
People choose to call her their sister.
When I was living with locals in Africa 🌍 they also embraced me as a family member - it is their generosity of heart. 💖 😊
I do agree, and enjoyed the ever present smiles from the people even when doing back breaking work.
She probably helped her off camera and don’t forget she offered her medicine at the start when the old lady wasn’t well. I think she was very kind and respectful to the people and even ate meals with them. They didn’t have good hygiene but she accepted their hospitality.
Well, I'm 82 years of age and this is the best documentary I've ever watched, absolutely brilliant.
You will love this documentary then

@@clarionphilips2556 Don't know what destiny wrote.......its may be your turn first......never comment such !
@@clarionphilips2556 I have lived a long happy life, have never made a snide comment to, or about anyone in my 82 years. I don't think you will be able to say the same, I do pity you.
"WE WERE BORN TO DIE, WE MEET PEOPLE TO LEAVE THEM, WE OWN THINGS TO LOOSE THEM". THAT SUNK IN DEEP.
Your words are immortal, u look like a spiritual man
Nothing is permanent. The Buddha teaching. I'm buddist and this is the notion we live our lives.
I wonder why the french woman didn't tell them that there are few parents left in the west and divorce is everywhere? And women dont really breastfeed in the west they use plastic bottles. I noticed she pushed the part where women decide whom to marry. That was thee only truth. Looks like shes infecting these humble people with failed western thinking.
@@7773moses not being able to decide who to marry is a worse problem than not breastfeeding. I don't know how that is even a problem
41:26 that quote.
This is wonderful. The fact she learnt the native language is amazing. So many people make documentaries without even being able to have a conversation with the very people their discussing.
The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee. (Jer. 31:3)🎈🎊
This French B1tch is definitely a Tox1c Manhat3r.
'K1dnapping the Bride' is a Part of the Marriage Tradition in this place. Its done with CONSENT OF THE FAMILIES n is therefore only a FORMALITY. Its Ki
1dnapping only in the Name n is very SAFE.
The way the Narrator said it, she made it seem like the VVoman was Rap3d by her Husband n was later forc3d to Marry.🤥🤥🤥
What a Ly1ng vvhor3!!!🤮🤮🤮
I hope she give funds from what she learn from this ppl.many foreigners take advantage of these ppl &write &stay with them for free.later earning so much from their documentaries.
I am 100% sure that the woman who is narrating is a local who went to America and became fluent in English.
@@sungai447 As a tribal it is sad for me that foreigners who come here interact with us and make documentaries on us which we love to show our life style. However, they do nothing in return for our community. They just use us and leave us.
Absolutely gorgeous documentary. Thankyou . My 89 year old infirm Bengali mother adores this and watches it over and over again. She has just lost her 96 year old husband ( my father ) and this video gives her so much peace.
"We work hard. We work and then, we die." Spoken with a broad smile, a whistle, a grunt as she lifts a burden that would stagger most Westerners. These people live in what would appear to be squalid poverty but seem richer by far than most people pursuing wealth in urban drudgery, alone in their crowds. I very much enjoyed this film.
Actually, these people are more blessed. They are satisfied of what they have. More blessings!
Admire the family👍
their life reminds me of the life in ecclesiastes

Wonderful. The scenes of the little girl trying to pick up a heavy load onto her back and finally succeeding really touched me. It symbolized their hard life and the courageous way that they lived it.
No you’re just lazy, humans are meant for this. Not a life sitting around a screen, the digital age is detrimental to our health.
This must be what life was like pre industrial revolution.
I am from zanskar
I don't think they have a choice...they are born on this earth..and on this earth wecall have to live with what we have...but family is everything ❤
I felt both awed and sad during different points in this beautiful video. The "sister" who is only 13, yet works so hard....knowing there is the potential for another kind of life out there. I hope she experiences the plane ride at some point in her life. The great grandmother, blind and still working the fields at 80 years old. I was sad when she died, she is such an inspiration. They all are such happy people. We could take a lesson from them in that you don't need much to make you smile.
Plane ride just took a whole different meaning for me. While you are sitting flying around, there are kids like that 13years old watching with the biggest imagination ever. It brings me back to my humble childhood in Africa.. I hope she get to experience it someday.
Indigenous people have too many children and migration to the Big cities is destroying the city. Everyone living in the countryside is expecting to live in a city. Everything has a limit. Read on John B. Calhoun.
To everyone slamming her for supposedly not helping with the work:
She lived with them for _years._ She knew their language. The people loved her! Of course she must have helped a lot. But she took some hours to focus on filming, so you could watch and criticize.
(I also live in Asia. My wife and I do everything we can to help the people here. But still some people criticize.)
46:44 We see clearly that the native woman is quite accustomed to telling the foreigner what to do. That she expects her friend to work.
Miserable people criticize and complain.
I loved seeing the constant smiles on their faces
Exactly! People get closer to people not just because watching/filming them but because of the personal interaction which no doubt included working along them. The film maker/scientist had a very close bond with them and yes, they loved Angmo. Beautiful and interesting documentary. The ones who have criticized her, may I question them? Have you ever been in a situation like that? for how many years? :)
The child and baby goat in the basket.made my year.

This documentary makes us realize to witness how intrigued & undiscovered our planet is, depending on the different regions of the world. The fact that we can appreciate this sort of documentary on RUclips by SLICE is utterly priceless. Thank you. (11/07/21)

I can't explain it but I fell in love with the people in this village. Life has dealt them a tough hand and they are making the best of it with warmth, charm and humor. People like this are not what's wrong with the world.
very well said.
Right you are.

Aww..the last bit when she says how she will miss you..ask for your news..and if people ask ..will tell you are her sister...well ur so lucky to have such a precious sister❤️what a wonderful people..im amazed..the more the hardships..the more they smile through it..no matter what thoughts might run in their heads...this was amazing and humbling. Wonderful work Slice!! Thankyou sm.
Yes Thank you, I really enjoyed my evening with this documentary about these beautiful people.
This documentary should win Oscar and should be in human digital library forever...
I've no idea what have I done to deserve for my eyes to see this documentary; the emotions I'm feeling can't not be described with words. . impossible!
I would give anything to be worthy of be in the presence of one of those wonderful human beings.
May God bless them!
Thank you so much for this film! 🙏
The shock is the sudden break advert to Mc Donald, to brutally brings you back to the ugly reality, is like a brick in your face
I have never read a more beautiful comment. You and I are a special kind of human.
Zanskar looks so beautiful from outside. Hopefully we can keep its beautiful nature even if we're lucky enough to visit it one day.
me too! the emotions running thru my body, my mind, i feel so uncomfortable in bed, typing on my laptop! God Bless them!
well said brother.
This video makes me realize how privilege my existing has been. It causes such strong mix feelings of sadness and exhilarating while admiring the human's integrity and survivor skills that literally beyond my grips, these women are amazing beyond words. Thank you for bringing me to Zanskar and meeting these great women by sharing your great video.
Amazing People!! God bless them!! 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for taking me places I’ll probably never get to visit. I grew up in a time before internet, so we are truly fortunate to live in this time of being able to share so much of the world!♥️
I look at what we have here in the U.S. and am embarrassed by what we as a nation feel that we deserve and need. These people are beautiful and put us all to shame. Beautiful documentary. Thank you.
@@JohnM-sw4sc you are truly sad..the comment wasn’t from a loathsome person ashamed of their heritage but an eye opening to the greed that makes us feel we need way too much..a very humble embarrassment when looking at the lives of these beautiful loving fellow human beings..I salute Kelly and that heartfelt comment…look deep inside and tell me why you need to turn it into something so negative
@@JohnM-sw4sc 🤐
Do not shame how people live in other parts of the country. We don't simply think we deserve and need, but work hard and appreciate the things we worked for. People are resilient and different everywhere. I'm embarrassed there are people like you who feel shame for simply existing in environment catered to your needs. That's what we worked for!
Oh yes more selfish westerners who pitty themselves. That’s what we need.
Their lives are simple, with gratitude and joyful! They are in harmony with the nature. The western world mess with nature to technologically advance, and the mental illness comes out of it...everything has consequences...
Tsephel the 13 year old girl is a gem of all girls . I hope she stays strong and healthy.

Damn this was so sad and eye opening at the sametime. I'd wish to get an update on the little girl Tsephel, her story and hardship made me cry, I hope she's doing well.
She is a darling. So full of life and imagination. If only I had the means to aide in her discoveries. She toatlly consumed my heart.

Very well done. What an incredible film. Thank you so much for bringing this to me. I have traveled many years ago into the Himalayas but never had this sort of experience that you did. Such beautiful people. So much sadness and heartache. But so delightful to hear and see a smile and a giggle. So many lessons to learn and our own materialistic lives.

Yess, Amen!

That was so sweet, she expressed how she feels about her. She had grown attached. 💗
I love the way the villagers individually point out how their village is the best, the calmest, the most scenic, and so on.
Th pride and love in their hearts is humbling.
I really appreciate how you interacted with the people and did not exploit or try to sensationalize your video, unlike so many other RUclipsrs. I am afraid these RUclipsrs will go to these foreign countries and the people in them will start to resent or fear them. We don't need to colonize or exploit anymore people. I really loved your video footage.
"...people have studied, they've become arrogant...we are all equal here" WOW, HOW ACCURATE
I've also noticed that it seems to be the more educated people that cop an attitude of arrogance..
Educational knowledge should not be for that purpose.. at all... But only for the enrichment of your mind heart and soul so that you may have more to share and give of yourself and give of anything TO others. .
What is education in large income ruin the spirit of a person's soul.????
@@janaprocella8268 a truly educated person is never arrogant. education is not just maths and science, it's also wisdom
Don't let schooling get in the way of your education. Only weak and average minds become arrogant.People can be book smart/on paper but life smarts is really what sets you apart. However, if you have both thats always ideal.

@@PhotoBomber yeah
I admire their values, thoughts, hard work and way of life. I come from small tribe in India and studying abroad in Germany. I guess, we should change the meaning of words "progressive society or richness". I spend very little time in my own village and after watching this documentary, everything flashes back instantly. I also admire you, for blending with them and tried your best to understand them. Thank you for this eye opening documentary. More power and love to you!

I was watching this video and had to stop because guests arrived to celebrate my son's birthdate. I shared the contents of video with family and friends. Everyone wanted to to view it too so I restarted the video from the beginning. It's beautiful story. Thank you.
I have lived in that setting 3 years in Ladakh ..I am so happy this documentary portrayed the essence and simplicity of those people ..since I have lived there ..the shear height takes on toll on life what to talk of working in the field ..I saw God in the simplicity and connection of humans with nature ! Living in Canada ..grew up in India ..had privilege of travelling world over ..how humbling is this experience called simplicity ! Thanks for this documentary to show the beauty of life 🙏🙏🙏
This documentary has touched my heart. I have so much love, awe and respect for the incredible humans highlighted here, as well as to Marianne for immersing yourself in their culture, life and language. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing this!
this was absolutely the most stunning and beautiful documentary, see how humble and happy and hardworking this beautiful family is, I live comfortably in a big city, but in my assessment these people are richer and happier than I am, watching their daily lives and how they live and survive is amazing and their interactions with nature and animals, if you ask me i would say these people do not need school these people are the teachers, a huge thank you to all who made this documentary possible
Who wants to go to the movies when one can enrich self by spending time watching how these women live and support each other. What a jewel. Thank you for sharing.
I didnt watch everything but .. where are the men?
I had for gotten about the movies. Almost $80 for a family of four?? You can have them.
My thoughts exactly 💯 😕
I bet they'd love some entertainment and diversion. That looks like a very hard monotonous life.

Awww the last statement by that woman made me cry 😭😭😭. She loved this documentary lady. Relationships are easy to form if you meet people with love. She is calling her sister already. I hope she wrote to her and tell her how she is
Exceptionnel... Ça me rappelle les vacances d'été, de l'enfance à l'adolescence, dans une belle région de Transylvanie... Et maintenant je vibre quand je me souviens... C'est resté la plus belle période de ma vie... Cette superbe documentaire m'humecte les yeux et me réchauffe le coeur... Merci du fond du coeur...
Thank you for making this film. I enjoyed it very much. I was especially touched by the 80 year old woman who worked so hard up until the day she died.
My mother, who is not one for RUclips and such, happened to see a part of the film as she passed through our lounge. She was very interested and asked me to show it to her later, which I did. She was also moved by it and remarked on the rough hands of the 13 year old girl you interviewed.
Thank you once again.
This documentary is so marvelous that I do not remember any film comparable seen yet in my 70 yrs. A very commendable and satisfying effort by the Director.
True.... I felt the same...no documentary is comparable with this one...
you got really good experience........this generation is not lucky like you !
Seeing how these people live every day, has given me an inner peace that will last the rest of my life! and has made me appreciate my life so much more!
Same here I'm 77 and this is the best documentary I have ever seen and I've watched thousands Thanks Marianne!
I loved the 13 year old girl. She was so sweet, curious, and fun! Also all the children seem sooo socially aware and smart. Way smarter than our children in the first world.
same here... I love her curiosity
There's all kinds of smart. First world kids are tech smarts. And soft. The distinct lack of heavy manual labor has made us soft.
That's coz they're not vakssine damaged
Yoy mean smarter than our TikTok children?
maybe because they're uneducated and spend their time exploring life?
Marvelous documentary, beautiful people who show the good nature of humans in its essence. Watching from France and Australia. Bravo for such effort, worth every minute of it to watch and learn from it.
Than you Marianne and Zed. Your work took me into the home and lifes of people in a place I have only read about. The experience was inspiring and it has taught me that humanity has difficulties wherever we are but it is how those difficulties are dealt which is important.
I pray protection for the communities from the intrusion of progress and development and ask divine spirit to guide them.
Blessings.
The great grandmother was blind but she was still working and with a sickle! How remarkable. When it was said she died 3 days later, I wept for her. Why did I do it? Because I know I like these people, clearly they’re my kind of people...
Definitely very easy to love these people wasn't an amazing how the I'm assuming two or three-year-old child automatically went and helped I guess the grandmother the blind grandmother walk, very very touching how they just worked so close together such diligent Harmony ❤️
They are truly blessed
simple n splendid
"I'll tell them you're my sister!" got me bawling. Thank you for such a beautiful documentary!
As an African American, I truly appreciate this. Seeing how other cultures and people live around the world bc we weren't taught about a lot of these cultures in school and Black Americans our culture has been stolen over the decades. So to see people still living in their homelands brings me a bit of joy. Thank you for sharing this experience ♥️
Wow! I cannot remember watching anything so captivating, and brilliantly filmed. A life of extremely hard & constant work, and yet the people's smiles and sense of humour is beautiful. The great grandmother at 80 years of age seemed to desire release from the never ending toil...and it came quite quickly after that particular scene of her cutting the grass in the field.
'Ephemeral'...
That's incredibly sad that being blind and her 80 year old body probably worn and painful how she's still expected to be as able bodied as everyone else!!
The young boy leading the granny by hand symbolises the very essence of being human,and dependent on each other ,as we navigate the maze of Life.
*great great granny
She i a tomboy
It was a girl, the boy was the baby.
Yet very mature on that age.. admire her attitude
You don't know how happy i am having found this documentary...forever thanks!
Your documentary helped my anxiety, thank you for making such a beautiful film

Thank you Slice for sharing such a beautiful and good quality documentary. The 13 years girl -Tsephel is so beautiful, smart and lovely in natural. ❤
Our world is so undiscovered. Thank you for making the sacrifice to show us this part of our world. Watching from Toronto. 🇨🇦🇹🇹🇨🇦
Who else felt a little bit guilty and shame? These beautiful people are amazing and I feel blessed to have seen this documentary. I'll never complain of how difficult my childhood was again. These children are truly incredible. I pray to have their strength and courage one day. I love helping the homeless and poor in my neighborhood, and I wish I could help these women on some level. God you have beautiful children all over this planet and these people on the top of the list.❤🙏😊
What an awesome video. Marianne, who filmed had such a sweet relationship with the people. The 13 year old girl was so sweet. I loved the lady at the end who said she would miss her. I admire Marianne for living with them to discover their awesome life. Such a beautiful documentary about the women who live in the Himalayans. Thank you for doing this. There aren't many people who would leave the comfort of their homes to do this. Thank you for sharing your life with them.
An excellent glimpse of Himalayan life. I'm a frequent travel blogger to the Indian side of the Himalayas, and I find new vibes every time I go there. Wow! Incredible Himalaya.
I am in tares after watching this video. love the way she have presented the village life at Zanskar. Truely priceless.
You cannot help but watch these people with great affection and respect. In my travels, in some very remote Philippine villages in Mindanao, I was told by a young man, "you will never be us". He meant at the time (I think), 'come and learn and let's be friends but you will leave again.' I'll never forget that. He trusted me enough to say that..... Thank you Marianne!
The potato girl seems so brilliant,and how I wish one day she'll get an opportunity to fly....she was so much interested ✈️
Yes! Indeed. God speed to her !
Wanting is against Buddhist religion it results to 7 deadly sins. Wanting leads to greed envy pride
@@CALCOBRA94 I want your happiness to be truly experienced.... * * * * * * *
My thoughts too! She was so sweet!
@@CALCOBRA94 Why do you think, everybody there is so eager to follow the buddist religion ? If someone comes to your place and tells you: Oh, you just told me you want to earn plenty of money and to get rich? But Jesus Christ said, rich people never will get to heaven. So it is against christian religion to wish to be rich. -
And it is like the man told us: "We think we will reincanised, but nobody knows for sure. "
I'd love to see some updates on this family and that village.
I am touched by this family, their life is so hard, plaqued by difficult circumstances yet they prevail season after season.
They work so hard and so determined to provide what little they can to their elders and children.
We can be distant from grim reality of life sometimes, we need these type of documentaries to speak to use on the humane level.
I have no words to express how I feel when witnessed documentaries like this. I'm glad I watch it and Now I'm celebrating every seconds of it. Truly it was a beautiful experience. Thank you Slice and their team for such efforts❤❤.
We are all made to think that people living like this are unusual or abnormal. After seeing this it shows that these people are human just like us and just as much as we are curious about them they’re curious about us. Watching this makes me want to travel the world, learn new languages, and become friends with beautiful people like this. All in all I am truly grateful to have witnessed this experience.
Agree with u 100% exactly my thoughts when I watched this. I am so grateful to have come across this
True
You only just figured out that they are human "like us"? Lord have mercy, you people are something else 😂
♥️♥️💚💚🙏
What to comment here, I am speechless after seeing this video. Best Documentary I have ever seen. By the way, I live in Germany & I am from INDIA. Never thought of High altitude villages in the Himalayas. I born & brought up in South India. we have so much to live happily & we waste food, we save so much money for next next next generations but never think of sharing with anyone. Thank you so much for this documentary. Namaskaram
Completely agree and well said!

Sad, sharing is giving and loving ❤ please share what others don't have.
GERMANY FOR THE GERMANS
Such a beautiful documentary about the lives of these village people, I cried at the end when she said she will miss her, what an amazing experience this must have been.
I fell in love with this beautiful documentary. I keep watching it over and over again and again whenever I feel down. It always help me plant my feet firmly without any fear of whatever lays ahead. This video is my strength. Thank you Marianna and everyone involved in the making of this wonderful documentary. With love from Mizoram, North East India.
I identify with the old blind grandmother and the joy of living with her granddaughter and being of use though blind! There is always work to be done, a way to contribute. Until you pass you are needed and life Goes on. Wonderful!!!!
This has to be one of the most beautiful videos I have ever seen in RUclips. Thank you so much for sharing, a real wonderful experience.
The people in the video are so strong ,kind hearted with such a hard life may god keep them safe and bless them .The little boy was so sweet
Phenominal piece of work!!! I dont have words to praise this documentary n the people alike. I have been hearing ," less is more " and " simplicity is the best design " and now have witnessed it with my own eyes . Moreover ,if one is content with whatever is available, life turns happy and beautiful automatically. Keep up the high standard of documenting, SLICE.
I'm from Bhutan. I could understand certain words here and there when the villagers were speaking. Watching this documentary reminds me of home. Very beautiful documentary indeed.
This film remind me of my childhood living in a Chinese village with my grandparents. It's full of the nostalgia. I moved to US with my husband 20 years ago. China has been developed and life is never like before. Besides all the best things happened to my life, deeply in my heart I know something has been missed along the way. I am so happy and almost crying when I watch your films.
我也是 觉得 这样子身或是真与简单与轻松并高兴的。
I can relate to the nostalgia,..I'm Kenyan .. Basically have found the world over life to be more or less the same
chinese communist ruined Tibet and the Tibetan people.
Come to visit
This is in Ladakh, India.
@@UploadTuber Is it possible to send a letter to a Ladakh resident? Can you help me about this? Thanks!
This documentary make us think about our own lifestyle, what we think that we need, and what really makes us happy...
Gorgeous Earth! Beautiful work, thanks for sharing!
I love knowing that there are so excited villages living like this out ther. They are so lucky not to live in our world .. the stress everyone. Feels for things that don't really matter. .
I am really impressed. They are free, healthy, no stress ,no money, strong ,pure souls.
Read Tolstoy
No money, no stress, thats it
dont worry itll soon change
Sure they have stress. Worrying about going hungry can leave you a bit grey... I've been there.
lol...there is a boy 13yrs old boy hanging himself to death..and still u say no stress..what a pity.
imagine being only a 13yrs young....how much stress would be...
This documentary is legendary.
Hard working and solid women all around the world. Those who fight for survival in harsh environments running their families in this documentary or those women in Iran who fight for their basic human rights, we take our hats off to you and respect.
Ein wunderschöner Bericht,
diese Menschen leben verbunden mit der Natur,
arbeiten hart, haben wenig, dennoch stralen sie eine Zufriedenheit,
eine innere Ruhe aus. Wir, in unserer zivilisierten Welt können von solchen Völkern viel lernen.
Vor allem die Weisheit und das Glücklichsein mit Vorhandenem!
Ein Bericht, der einem im Herzen berührt, uns die Stärke und Zähheit dieser Menschen zeigt, aber auch wie wichtig ein stabiler Familienzusammenhalt ist.
Danke schön 🤗❤
My heart aches to grandma and even though I am just a viewer in this documentary I feel like I will cry when she said I will miss you and cry for a while 😢
and the kids they are very lovely and hard working at the young age. I wish I will able to hear from them thru this documentary again .💜Please tell them we see them and that they are amazing people and very lucky to have a peaceful village.
We shouldn' respect woman
A total masterpiece. I saw it twice in a day and never wanted it to end..... ❤❤❤❤❤
31:00 the picturesque rainbow in the background ❤
A beautiful story, beautiful people, beautifully told. Thank you!
I have never teared up so many times while watching this. The lump in my throat when I heard the granny died. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Yah I felt so sad when the. grandmother died.
It bothered me that they let the grandma work to hard by herself.
Those women are strong and their children grow up strong.✊🏼✌🏽
⁷b
They certainly are.
I will not complain about how difficult life is. They are an amazing people.
Beautiful country, beautiful people. We can learn so much from them. Forget the studying. They have infinite wisdom and survival skills and they do just fine. Love viewing other traditional and ethnic videos. Thank you 💓
I wish I had wings I could flew to Zanskar and give this wonderful people in this mountain a huge hug and tell them you live a priceless life. Much love from Kenya.
That's a great thought but...let's not cause contamination to thir soil with the world visiting them.
I just say that because I remember an isolated tribe...that was visited by outsiders....and after....they were not the same...and many wish they didn't have contact with them. I forget the tribe and the name of the documentary which covered the subject.
Oh NO stay where ever you are 🤔🤫🤭🤐
You are from Kenya and isolated.
You can give me hug i m from zanskar
This girl so happy to have someone to talk to, beautiful and beautiful girl. People of the land, we need people like them in this world they remind us of where we came from and how we lived
Then why are they almost all gone?
Yes, I ❤️ the young girl! So brave and intelligent too. I hope she never loses the curiosity that she has with the hard life she leads.
I'm really very thankful for this documentary!! Thanks for showing us beautiful and kind hearted people living in their small but peaceful and beautiful world !❤️
So pure, so innocent they looks. Sceneries are so beautiful, serene and melancholic.
Who ever filmed this video has done all who watch it a gigantic favor... thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
I wonder why people dislike, this is a wonderful documentary
@@bubrinha I didn't have any trouble reading the subtitles.
@@bubrinha I had the problem too, but I think, those people have not their vacabulary so rich. They are not educated and live on the same place in isolation. They need not use lot of words like e.e. you. I see how they speak short and quicky sentences and that is problem to translate it to English .So subtitles were very quick too.
@@bubrinha they arent blurred at all. Did u know that u can change the resolution to be better quality picture. Yours is probably set at the worst setting. Mine is perfectly fine
They have upside eyes, so their angle of seeing/looking is exact opposite of normal
@@tonym4136 thanks for the tip! I'm going to check that. 🙂
There is something really special about their facial gestures, how their eyes move and a smile forms.. so quick and uninhibited. Especially the little girl Tsephel.
I felt so sad when it showed that grandma has died three days later... These people live a really hard life. Sometimes I think this can be also called lonely lives. Zanskar is beautiful too. Thanks for upload this video
Thank you ! 😘
I hope the photographer and editor gets to see this. This was one of the most magnificent videos of its type I have seen anywhere. The photography shots were all stellar and I'm not talking about the obvious scenic beauty. The close ups made me feel like I know these people. Didn't see a sour edit anywhere in the film. (I'm retired news photographer with 50 years experience shooting and editing in a major market.... in other words, I know what I'm looking at and appreciate the monumental effort it must have taken to accomplish this work of art) You have created a work that will live beyond your years. Tonight when I retire for the evening much time will be spend wondering why I have the life I have and not the ones of your friends. God Bless...stay safe
How lovely, refreshing to see a positive comment on RUclips-And FWIW, I agree! *Thank you* for this beautiful, thoughtful video. *Very, very well done.*
I felt the same, I thought it was the place and the people themselves.
The perfect place to live in this crooked world with lots of evil politicians
This is such a lovely comment!
NO NEITHER OF THEM WILL GET TO SEE IT. SHAME ! LOL
Beautiful. I’m really pleased to stumble onto this film maker. Their remoteness protects their way of life and in essence their life is simple and uncomplicated. The Indian Government should look to protect these lands from commercialism but at the same time provide education and medical facilities.
Sad enough, I believe, once education and services arrive, the young people will want to leave, live new lives, have X-Boxes for their kids…
Modernism kills the humanity,distances the people and worship things, titles that give one to another, useless for the essence of life.life means give not accumulation not grid and self worshipping.
THESE ARE HARD W0RK
ING WOMEN! I HAVE LIKED THEM
They are happy , leave them alone
"Education"! In other words, tell the women they are oppressed by their men so that they come to hate them, thus destroying the culture.
What a beautiful documentary. The children their innocence makes my heart full to see how well adjusted happy they are. actually what they have is priceless. I sincerely hope their way of life is not destroyed by modern amenities.
Watching it 4 hours after you. Having watched it so many times before
Tsephel: How many rugs are there on the plane...to sit on? 😂 I adore that little girl! She's the hardest working 13-year old I've ever seen!
I am overwhelmed with how happy these people are having so little. The things we consider necessities they know nothing of. Seem like truly sweet people. God bless them all. Or should I say he already has.
I am bless what we have in the state, you are right, these people have nothing to none.
Happy? they don't look happy.
@@chemsch8323 They look happy to me
@@MargaritaMagdalena ok.
@zameisie Why do you think their work is drudgery? And what's wrong with monotony?
I couldn't help but notice how well behaved the children are. Way mature for their ages. The work ethics are in place because their very lives depends on it. I saw wonderful compassionate intelligent people who love, suffer, are sometimes lonely but above all survivors. I promise each one of those people know what it is to go hungry. Powerful documentary. God bless those people.
They don't have a T. V. MY FATHER NEVER WATCHED IT.
