Bhutan:
The Last Sanctuary
A model for global sustainability and spiritual ecology, set in the world's only carbon-negative nation, where prosperity is measured in happiness and rivers are revered as life itself.

The Premise
A kingdom like no other — where ecology is sacred.
Bhutan is the only country in the world that absorbs more carbon than it emits. Environmental protection is enshrined in its constitution, and prosperity is measured not in GDP but in Gross National Happiness, a living index of ecological health, cultural integrity, well-being, and governance.
This film asks one question: what can the world learn from Bhutan before it is too late?
