The Glacier Wedding documents the ancient Himalayan glacier grafting ritual, a sacred ecological tradition practiced by high-altitude communities in the trans-Himalayan regions. At the heart of this ritual is the symbolic "marriage" of two types of ice, and the creation of a human-made glacier that sustains dozens of remote farms with a steady meltwater supply.
Through capturing the practice's labor, ceremony, and reverence, the film explores the spiritual and environmental dimensions of glacier grafting, portraying it as both a union of souls and a communal act of resilience against climate uncertainty.
