Fascinating, seeing a faraway place, that few westerners would know about. I assume if you're reading this, you already know what the film is, which is a tram going to a Temple, and the descent, going down. A couple of times it's mentioned that it was a 3 day hike up the mountain, before they built the tram, which scoots you up there today, in 10 minutes. My only criticism about the film, is they never show you the Temple, which is seriously important to the people in the film. Considering the odds that less then one per cent of the viewers of this documentary, will ever make the trip to see the Temple, it would have been appreciated, seeing what they are all going to. If you like seeing other parts of the world, where there is little in common with western life, then go see this. It is more interesting then half the nonsense Hollywood puts out.
