In a small Tibetan village, Nyima decides to go on a one year and 2,000km pilgrimage to Lhasa and the sacred Kang's Mountain to fulfill his uncle's wish. Some friends, neighbors and relatives decide to join him. Soon the small group of 11 is at the entrance of the village to start by foot a one thousand kilometers journey to try to expel their fault and enlighten their soul...
Shot over a period of a year, the film is a love letter from Zhang Yang to those incredible men and women who decide to leave their routine, overcoming the physical pain of their journey, in the search of appeasing their soul. Played by non professional actors, the drama is taylor-made for each character and follows them in what could have been their own pilgrimage.
