Synopsis

A bold social experiment takes place on a remote mountain peak. Former Buddhist monk Lobsang Phuntsok has committed himself to raising children with love and compassion. He tries to heal his own childhood of abandonment by adopting unwanted children and living with them as a large family in Jhamtse Ghatsal - the Garden of Love and Compassion - a remote children's community at the foot of the Himalayas.

The sequel to the Emmy Award-winning "Tashi and the Monk" shows in a touching and impressive way how lived love and spirituality can heal wounded souls.
