High in the Himalayas along the border of Nepal and Tibet exist some of the world's most ancient mountain cultures. Although their remoteness has ensured the longevity of their traditional heritage, the lack of access to education has contributed to a dark history of exploitation. In one of these remote valleys, a school and its founding Principal is working toward breaking that cycle and rewriting the future of its people.
