After a decade long civil war that took more than 13,000 lives in Nepal, the Maoists have come to compete in the national election for the country’s Constituent Assembly. In spite of the Maoist political takeover and strict social stigma, Bijuli, a 12-year-old girl from a remote village in western Nepal, pursues her passion for music. Soulful flute melodies underscore this poignant story of love, migration, separation, and longing.
