Lama Karma, (Justin Wall) my collaborator and the original reason for my invitation to make this film has just disappeared today for three years and a three months. It’s his second traditional retreat. Astonishing and strange. And there I am, angling for a shot.

With daily life starting to resemble a livable pattern, we turn to the next phase of production. Translation and transcription of the all the interviews is filling a lot of Karma and Jamdron’s time. A general inventory of additional elements that need to be shot is coming together. As half of Rinpoche’s life was lived in the US, there is still a lot of the story here to cover. In addition to the remaining production, we are researching for the business plan and on the look out for an editor and a composer to sign onto the project.

Here are some images from our week long car trip through Eastern Tibet and our travels in India and Nepal.
