Honeygiver Among the Dogs follows the investigation of a missing nun in a remote region of Bhutan. Detective Kinley goes undercover and enters a risky alliance with his only suspect, a mysterious and alluring young woman named Choden, known as the village “demoness.” Soon Kinley is removed from the case, and he spirals into delirium and nightmares. The Buddhist noir film unveils a web of magic, greed, compassion, and dakinis (enlightened Buddhist women of great power and wisdom).
