The Cup, Travellers And Magicians, Vara A Blessing) newest film is the intriguingly titled
Looking For A Lady With Fangs and A Moustache. Set in Kathmandu, the film’s tale is the journey of a worldly 30-year-old man, Tenzin, who is caught between the modern and traditional worlds of Nepal. Somewhat driven and obsessive, Tenzin is focused single-mindedly on creating Kathmandu’s best coffee shop. Though he disparages superstition, Tenzin is suddenly tormented by peculiar and recurring dreams and images that signal his imminent death. On the advice of a cool monk and the MASTER of the Left-Hand Lineage (secret Buddhist wisdom lineage), a sceptical Tenzin must seek out a very special woman – a “Dakini” who may have a moustache, fangs and a third eye… What happens on Tenzin’s journey? Does he find the Dakini and live a new life? Well, you will have to wait to realize and experience what happens to him when you watch the movie.
