Synopsis

Dhondup has dedicated his whole life to the art of thangka painting. Before completing his final masterpiece, he unexpectedly discovers he will soon go blind. His son has always wanted to serve as his successor, but Dhondup refuses to accept his Westernized painting style. Frustrated with his son, Dhondup searches for his late thangka teacher’s reincarnation and identifies him as a young disabled man from the grassland who knows nothing about painting. Is he really the thangka master's reincarnation?

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 3

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
