Living in India’s Highest Village (-40°C, Thin Oxygen) | Changthang

At an altitude where breathing itself becomes a challenge, winter temperatures drop to –40°C and oxygen levels fall to nearly 55% of normal, life is pushed to its absolute limits.
Yet, high in the Indian Himalayas, Changthang continues to exist.

This documentary takes you deep inside India’s highest inhabited region, where survival depends on ancient knowledge, resilience, and harmony with nature. Isolated for months each year, the people of Changthang have adapted to extreme cold, thin air, and a landscape where modern life struggles to survive.

From traditional stone homes designed to trap heat, to daily routines shaped by altitude and scarcity, every moment here tells a story of endurance. The film explores how nomadic heritage, livestock, seasonal migration, and centuries-old traditions allow life to continue in one of the harshest environments on Earth.

Through cinematic visuals and immersive storytelling, this journey reveals what it truly means to live beyond comfort, beyond civilization, and close to the edge of human survival.

This is not just a place.
This is life at the extreme limits of nature.
