I was in the mountains in Uttarakhand in India when the first rains and landslides started. I knew it was going to be bad and came back. Within the next couple of days rainfall increased, floods and landslides wiped away roads, bridges and entire towns. About 100,000 pilgrims were airlifted by the Indian army and airforce. This two and half minute short is to raise awareness about the destruction we are causing by mindless construction in the mountains of the himalayan range. Shot with Canon C300 except for the 15 seconds where the rains/storm is heavy with sky and water black.
