'Taking on the Storm' is a documentary film about the history of political struggle in rural Nepal. A decade after the Maoist revolution has swept with the old feudal regime the film sets out to explore how this large-scale transformative and violent process has changed people's everyday lives. The story explains the struggle of Kham Magars, an ethnic minority from Mid-Western Nepal that found themselves at the center of the revolutionary storm. We follow a former Maoist battalion commander to his home village in the remote Rukum district that used to be one of the Maoist strongholds. Through intimate portraits of ex-combatants the film brings to life the different dimensions of village social life during and after the revolution. By showing how the lived experience of political action continues to have an impact on people's lives, the film tries to understand the post-revolutionary situation of rural Nepal.
