The film's pacing is contemplative, allowing the audience to really sit with the character's pain and transformation. The atmosphere is heavy with spiritual weight, and the cinematography does a remarkable job of capturing the raw beauty of the Tibetan landscape. The performances, particularly of the lead, embody a mix of vulnerability and strength that’s hard to shake off.
