Travelers and Magicians
This is Bhutan's first film to make it into the international market. It shows a breathtaking peek into the Druk Yul, Land of the Thunder Dragon, which is how Bhutan is referred to by its natives. The movie juxtaposes the journey of a civil servant in "real" life and that of a young man in a fairy tale, both in search of a better tomorrow. The story is simple but yet profound in its impact and message.
