Filmmaker Kesang Tseten...has made a series of documentaries on Nepalis who leave behind their villages and fields to move to the Gulf and work as maids, construction labour, and restaurant staff. Through such documentaries as In Search of the Riyal, Saving Dolma and The Desert Eats Us, Tseten provides rare and piercing views of the forces that push Nepalis to faraway lands, the conditions in which they work, and the feelings of the families they have left behind.
