Journey to Yarsa

Directed by Dipendra Bhandari

Dipendra Bhandari follows a family from Rolpa as they head up north to the Himalayan foothills in search of the yarsagumba, the fungus that grows out of caterpillars prized for its virile properties. They join the caravan of thousands of other Yarsa hunters on their yearly trek up the treacherous yet breathtaking mountain trails.
