Two boys set out from their village in search of a missing hen. The film, which tells the story of this quest across the country's battle-scarred landscape from the kids' perspectives, scooped the top award at Venice International Critics' Week and was in competition at FIFF 2016. The following year, it was shown at FIFF again, and this time in the Festival's New Territory: Nepal section.
