The grass may not be greener on the other side
20 May 2004
The movie captures the beauty of bhutanese life. For a city dweller like me, we may fail to comprehend how nice it is to just relax and let go. We are always rushing for time and always chasing dreams. The film captures the impatience and arrogance of Dondup.He thinks that going to America can let him earn more and be happier, and he feels contempt of his own country and culture. He is like a typical person obsessed with going to his "dreamland"( or for our case, dream job, dream girls,etc) and blind to the beauty that surrounds him. The movie is a cautionary tale that the grass may not be greener on the other side.
