In a small town under the shadow of the Himalayas stand The Everest, a once impressive hotel now home to a curious band of geriatrics, eccentrics and orphans, and four nuns, charged with the care of this strange menage. Into this small community comes Ritu, a young nun newly arrived from her village in the foothills. Her task is to nurse the Everest's owner, Jed, a lecherous ninety-year old.
