A year after the accidental death of their father, three drug-addicted brothers -- each suffering from depression - meet for a train trip across India. Francis, the eldest, has organized it. The brothers argue, sulk, resent each other, and fight. The youngest, Jack, estranged from his girlfriend, is attracted to one of the train's attendants. Peter has left his pregnant wife at home, and he buys a venomous snake. After a few days, Francis discloses their surprising and disconcerting destination. Amid foreign surroundings, can the brothers sort out their differences? A funeral, a meditation, a ... hilltop ritual, and the Bengal Lancer figure in the reconciliation.Read moreLess

This is a really unusual comedy, totally unlike anything around at the mom...
A spiritual quest can take many forms. One could argue that all of director Wes Anderson's movies focus on a sense of personal melancholy and directionlessness that often fuels such an odyssey. And they do so with a dark and offbeat wit.
But in The Darjeeling Limited, the journey toward enlightenment (or at least a degree or two of heightened self-knowledge) is the most overt of all his films.
Though the main characters in the film don't exactly eat, pray and love (they're more likely to get high, contemplate and bicker), they willingly undertake a spirit-enhancing journey.
