Film
Overview
Shambhala
is
set
in
the
1980s
in
a
remote,
highly
superstitious
village
where
a
meteor
crash
triggers
strange
supernatural
events.
The
story
follows
an
atheist
scientist
who
must
confront
an
ancient
force
that
defies
explanation,
challenging
his
understanding
of
science
and
the
natural
world.
The
narrative
blends
mystery
and
paranormal
occurrences,
grounded
in
a
rural
setting
shaped
by
fear
and
belief.
