Pad Yatra: A Green Odyssey

 

I'll always remember Pad Yatra fondly for being one of the few projects I worked on that wasn't about tension, fear, or machismo. Rather, it's central focus is compassion, towards one another and the environment. Pad Yatra is a documentary about Tibetan monks and nuns who annually trek across the Himalayas to pick up trash, plant trees, and spread a message about global climate change. It's a genuinely moving examination of the lengths people will go to in the name of love for their planet and each other.
