Iacobella, a young woman, is travelling on her own in a remote Himalayan tribal area in Arunachal Pradesh, northeast India, to visit an orphanage near the capital Tawang. There Lama Thupten asks her to accompany a boy Tenzin to Shillong to search for a good school for him.

Tenzin, ‘a very special boy’, has a big imagination and he believes that he’s able to connect with the cosmos. On the way they meet two more people: Tashi, another boy from a Mompa village Lhou and his teacher Dawa. They decide to travel together because Dawa and Tashi also want to go to Shillong to visit schools. Iaco’s Tale tells the story of a joyful relationship enriched by Tenzin’s visions. The two boys become good friends and through their eyes we get to see tribal customs in rural areas and the school system in contemporary India.

For the first time in human history, a smaller proportion of the global population now lives in rural areas, states the United Nations statistics from June 2006. The twentieth century witnessed the rapid urbanization of the world’s population. As a result villages have been eclipsed in importance, as units of human society, settlement and traditions. This issue is being dealt with by the documentary Lost Village. Lost Village aims to explore that simple way of life, which is crucial to the solution of ecological problems and social dilemmas. "Is that simple village life destined to die?” is the call of millions throughout the world.

Depicting the majesty and splendor of untouched nature, this documentary reveals the simplicity and beauty of village life. It portrays the joy and hardship of villagers and focuses on their values, invoking deep sympathy and respect. The purity of their songs and voices, the enchanting sounds of nature and the unique music soundtrack, make this film an unforgettable experience.

Lost Village presents the knowledge and wisdom of village people. It reveals the hopes and fears of real people in real situations. This film documents the opinion of rural development experts from India, Europe and US, as well as the insights of its main character, Lokanath Swami. Born and raised in Arawade, a remote village of Maharashtra, India he has traveled extensively throughout the world. But his knowledge, erudition, and vast experience could never eclipse the home of his heart: “Arawade, I am happy to be home! I am happy to be here!” We hear Maharaja's voice, who is presently working on a book of his life-long experience with India’s villages. And Lost Village gives voice to his message to modern day society.

Lost Village is not the story of one village or one villager, but a story of 500 thousand villages in India and millions throughout the world endangered to vanish from the face of the Earth.
