In the Himalayas, two Indigenous women track a snow leopard and find freedom, courage, and sisterhood.
A snow leopard wipes out a family's entire herd of goats. Tshiring Lhamu Lama travels alone to her home in a remote corner of the Himalayas, vowing to end retaliatory killings of local snow leopards. To succeed, she must first convince her young apprentice Tenzin to love the animals that have taken everything from her and her family. Tenzin herself is trying to escape an impending forced marriage. Together, the two indigenous women travel through the windy heights of the Himalayas – in search of the snow leopard, freedom and their voice in a world that often overlooks them. A powerful story of female
courage, trust, and unexpected sisterhood in
the shadow of extinction.
For those drawn to wild places and brave hearts.
The screening is followed by a talk with the directors Ben Ayers and Andrew Lynch.
