Short Synopsis
Music of the sacred vessel — a short documentary on the last families of the Kathmandu Valley still crafting the ritual instruments that carry a festival's soul.
Extended Synopsis
Kalash Ko Sangeet is a short documentary about the Newar dhime, ponga and jhyali musicians who accompany every festival in the Kathmandu Valley — and the ageing craftsmen who still handmake their instruments in courtyards behind the temples. A film about the sound of a tradition that must be played to stay alive.
