A Shepherd's Journey (with English Subtitles)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 гру 2018
- This short film follows Narender Kaith, a Gaddi shepherd from the Kaobil village in the Shimla district of Himachal Pradesh. Every year he and his fellow Gaddis take a herd of around 1500 sheep and goats across the Bhabha pass from the Kinnaur region of Himachal Pradesh to Spiti. This video is about his life, his journey and the difficulties faced along the way.
I spent about 40 days travelling with the shepherds to make this video. Meeting Narender in the Bhabha valley was a completely random coincidence and I thank my lucky stars for that meeting. We were not that well acquainted on our onward journey from the Bhabha Valley to the Pin Valley. I was camping a bit away from the shepherds and cooking my own food. But we became much closer on the return journey and I was soon eating, sleeping and living in their camps. I was following truly in the footsteps of the nomads!

M from Uttrakhand and my grandfather was a shepherd..every year for six to eight months he wud go with the sheeps to many many vallies and comes back home with lot of fruits, dry fruits,dry meats,and many more things to eat...and yes some incredible jungle stories too...till date I have not seen a person like him...he spent half of his life with sheeps but was so humble and so strong mentality and physically... H used to carry gas cylinder at his back and every day 15 to 20 km walk he used to do...never seen him sick or tired..always full of energy..always making us laugh..he is my idol ..
I m a professional makeup artist in Mumbai..living my dream..have been to foreign ..getting handsome salary...but still can't compare myself to him.
Thanks for sharing your story.

Watching your beautiful documentary brings the realization that a majority of souls on this planet who live a minimalist lifestyle are truly content. They face many hardships but find the inner strength to overcome these challenges, and this is what makes us human. Fast forward to the city and we find a world based on seeking comfort in material things while the soul remains empty.
So true sir
This Video is just amazing.....I am feeling so grateful and proud that I belong to Gaddi Tribe. Our traditional dresses, our folk songs, and really awesome. I have lived in many states but the beauty and peace that I have found in Himachal Pradesh can't be expressed in words.
Gaddis are pride of entire Himachal pradesh
I love my himachal. I love my culture. Life is tough so what....
Long live my gaddi brothers. Best video I ever watched. I from Kangra.
We stayed in Simla in 1987. A local man told us people usually do not close their doors because nobody steals there. i was amazed with the honesty of the ordinary people there.
we dont close door till date we keep open in summer and all the things is kept in its place no need to take in
Gujarat me bhi aisa hi hota hai. I've lived there so I know.
Pahadi people of Himachal ,laddakh , uttrakhand ,Sikkim etc are most honest people

Emotions kr Diya re... love you Himachal
Salute and respect from Kurdistan
This is one of the most surreal presentation of the lives of himalayan mountain tribes. It seems the gaddis see sheeps as their children and this journey to land with nutritious grass is more about care of these livestocks & emotions than any economic considerations.
It is romantic to think that way. They do care about their animals but it is mostly for economic reasons than anything else. But there are exceptions here as well, as always.
@@indiainmotion So if the economics of this practice trumps over its traditional aspect then there should be no doubt if the future generation will continue this, unless the community moves towards a more settled lifestyle or take up other economic activities.
Btw, you guys are doing great work !
Keep it moving :)

@@LINESTELECOMCORDEDTELEPHONES negi is used for all kinnouras in a generalized manner
Like I am using negi as an sirname but my real House name is different
@@abhisheknegzz2191 wrong ❌ the nergi surname people are also there in Uttarakhand and they don't have to do anything with kinnaur and Himachal nor did they migrate from Himachal
@@himalayancanine I know that negi is used in Garhwal and other parts of utrakhand , I actually have many friends in gharwal region with thr surname of negi
As for the relationship between Kinnauras and gharwal region
You might be wrong about that
Ancient Kinnauras are said to be spread across to the bank of ganga
And both KinnauRi and gharwali have many similarities in their culture ( as far as I know )
