The Shamanic Path to Spirit Liberation

खली खाने(Khali Khane), also known as Bayu Utarnu, is an ancient Shamanic ritual in Nepal that distinguishes between malignant and benevolent spirits. The ritual involves summoning and questioning wandering souls, particularly those who died untimely deaths. Performed by a Dhami (shaman), it aims to liberate these spirits through a fire-walking ceremony, helping them transition from samsara and find peace.

The Storyline

Indra, a nepali man in his thirties, returns after working abroad relentlessly for years but still broke, and back in the village where he owes money to many. Looking for ways out, he is eying to sell his family’s land only to discover it belongs to his younger brother, Bharat. Haunted by the guilt of not performing his father’s final rites, a responsibility he failed to fulfill as the elder son, Indra is consumed by regret. As he performs “Khali” with his unresolved trauma and troubles, Indra believes that this is his only path to liberation.

Director's Statement

Khali is more than just a cinematic experience. It is an expression of me as a 26-year-old Nepali, offering a perspective that is uniquely ours. This film is a journey into the hearts and minds of my characters, a reflection of my personal experiences and the society I live in, a story that I believe no one else could tell the way I will.
