"When I grow up"
Nepal, 2018
This project was my first film documentary. When I started videography I decided to leave for 3 month in the poorest part of Nepal. Here I discovered a simple way to live. How could I ever imagined the values that this experience gave me.
After 2 days of walk between those giant of ice, we arrived at the village of Sherock, build on the mountain slope. Here, the houses are made by hands with rock and mud.

Luckily no one was injured.
