Time is not a line, not a circle. It’s a spark in a dark cave radiating at all directions. All is never lost. When you’re alone and dying, you still have the memories, the regrets.The Lake and the Glacier is a story of a terminally ill man who made a promise to an Indian boy; of a newlywed couple escaping the monotony of their lives; of a lake and a glacier hiding in a cloud high in the Himalayas.
