In 2015 an earthquake shook the mountains of the Langtang Valley, Nepal, causing landslides and avalanches taking hundreds of lives from the small community. A year later Nima Gyalmu, a woman of strength, dignity and humour, rebuilds her house in this remote and shattered place while trying to come to terms with her new world in the heart of the Himalayas. Have the Gods of the mountains deserted her?
