"Black Narcissus," a captivating joint production by FX, Disney, and BBC, delves into the profound journey of nuns traversing the serene and majestic Himalayas of Nepal. Set against the awe-inspiring backdrop of the Kag Chode Thupten Samphel Ling Monastery in Kagbeni, this mini-series beautifully portrays themes of faith and harmony. Featuring an illustrious international cast, including Gemma Arterton, Alessandro Nivola, Aisling Franciosi, Diana Rigg, Jim Broadbent, and others, "Black Narcissus" is a testament to Nepal's diverse and welcoming culture. The story, adapted from the 1939 novel by Rumer Godden and previously made into a film in 1947, unfolds the psychological drama and cultural clashes faced by nuns in a remote Himalayan convent.
