Set against the stunning backdrop of Ladakh, Made In Paradise tells the story of the Changpa nomads, guardians of the world’s finest Pashmina. A testament to human resilience and perseverance, the film highlights the community’s immense respect for the environment, and its attempt to protect a rich heritage and culture, only to ensure that their Pashmina remains a global treasure. The film also explores the symbiotic relationship between the herders and their animals, the legacy of the Pashmina, and the fight to preserve a way of life that teeters on the edge of survival.
