Synopsis

Archery in Bhutan is a rich part of the cultural fabric. Traditional archery matches are community-wide events involving song, dance, food, and drink. However, both internal and external forces have begun to change the face of the game. Through a tapestry of individual stories intertwined with interviews from the country’s leaders, this documentary explores the many facets of archery in Bhutan and addresses the challenges of cultural preservation against the forces of modernization, westernization, and economic development.
