A film by Khyentse Norbu
Two men, two women, two journeys are woven into an intricate tapestry of desires as we are taken on an adventurous emotional tour through the heartland of Bhutanese Buddhist culture.
Travellers & Magicians, shot entirely in the tiny Buddhist Kingdom of Bhutan, tells the story of a young man who wants to leave behind his country with its quaint ways and simple joys to find a glamourous new life in America. He shares his journey across Bhutan with a group of travellers, including a monk, who annoys him with irritating truths hidden in a mystical story of magic, desire and murder. It is a multi-layered film, featuring a story within a story. Two men, one chasing love ends up in a dream. The other, chasing a dream, leaves love behind.
