Memories of home

Memories of homes is a story about the old stone and mud houses of Ladakh. Since ancient times, these homes were entirely made from locally sourced materials, and were designed to meld into the mountainscape, completely in harmony with nature. The Director is transported back to his grandmother’s now abandoned home, reliving childhood memories of a time when he lived and played there. It dawns on him that Ladakhis aren't building such homes anymore, and he wonders if these houses will vanish forever and live on only as memories.
