Soul on a string
After discovering a sacred stone in the mouth of a slain deer, Taibei, young Tibetan wanderer, embarks on a mission of redemption in order to bring the divine artifact back to its rightful home, the holy Mountain of Buddha's Handprint. Danger and treachery await at every step, as black market traders and two brothers in search of vengeance stand in his path. Along the way, however, Taibei encounters a motley band of followers that help him on his strange and mystical journey.
