Highway (2012 Nepali Film)
''Highway'' is a Nepali Anthological Film produced by Aadi Productions in association with Louverture Films. ''Highway'' was officially selected for and screened at the 62nd Berlin International Film Festival. It was critically acclaimed but it did not perform well at the box office. Plot Set against the backdrop of the new culture of bandhs (general strikes) that frequently immobilize post-conflict Nepal, ''Highway'' explores five different relationship stories that become intertwined during an ill-fated bus journey from eastern Nepal to the capital Kathmandu. While the passengers - each of whom urgently needs to be somewhere else await a resolution to the combustible strike that is blocking the only passable road, the film explores the psychological and spiritual bandhs that many Nepalese contend with.
