Snow Leopard

On the Tibetan plateau, two brothers face off – a herder who is enraged that a snow leopard has killed nine of his rams, and a monk who believes he can communicate with the leopard. Directed by the late Pema Tseden, the first director from China to make films shot entirely in Tibet, Snow Leopard captures beautifully the complicated relationship with nature and society on the Tibetan plateau.
