liangshuang, majoring in directing in a film institute, came to Lijiang for a documentary about the existing Dongba culture of Naxi people as his graduation assignment.
Dongba Religion is the traditional religion of Naxi people, whose high priests are called Dongba. They are the wise and inheritors of Dongba culture, named the living museum. And there have been hundreds of years’ tradition for them inheriting their job from ancestors.
A Naxi guy, Jiangchu, was attracted by the modern culture while staying with Liangshuang, so he decided to struggle out instead of being a Dongba. His father required him to be modeled on inherited religious instruments before he left, so Jiangchu and Liangshuang set out for a journey to visit three Dongbas as well as imitate religious instruments.
