Review of Himalaya

Himalaya (1999)
8/10
Splendid! Grandiose! A breathtaking human adventure.
4 July 2000
Splendidly filmed on the "rooftop of the world", the film is a breathtaking "human adventure" minus the usual added elements of Hollywood and the Occident. A strong film on pride, endurance and the life of a people and culture not often seen. In sum, the film gives a rare and very much appreciated glimpse into a segment of Himalayan life and traditions. Few, if any, past efforts made along similar lines, live up to this one. The vivid colours and magnificent scenery brings the pristine background to life. Thumbs up for director Eric Valli.
