FIVE GUYS, FOUR BULLETS (2006)

This is a travel documentary on a group of 5 bikers who
decide to ride their Royal Enfield Bullet motorcycles from
Delhi to Ladakh, the Indian home of Tibetan Buddhism.
This 3,000 km journey across the Himalayas is one of the
toughest motorcycle trips in the world.

There were just five riders and four bikes - no back-up
vehicle and no film crew. There was no pre-planned
screenplay, and no locations or events to cover. The film
was shot by one of the bikers, filmmaker Karan Singh,
who took his camera along for the ride. He is the one-man
unit behind this film.

The documentary captures the interaction and experience
of the bikers as they ride through the Himalayas. Through Kashmir and Ladakh, they encounter floods, landslides,
snow, and altitude sickness at heights of 18,300 feet.

It's a film on friendship, camaraderie, and the 'never say die' attitude of the five as they face off with nature, connect with
local communities, explore old battlefields, and encounter nomads amidst some of the most spectacular and demanding landscapes possible.

Five Guys, Four Bullets was shot in summer 2005 over a period of 21 days.
