La bergère des glaces

Way up in Ladakh—at 16,500 feet, somewhere in the Gya-Miru Valley—lives a shepherdess with a flock of 250 sheep and pashmina goats on a huge deserted rock-strewn mountain. One year long, Tsering, shares with us her lonely life among animals in an extreme environment. In spite of these tough conditions, she shows us an astonishing strong spirit. She preserves a traditional ecological way of living. But for how long ?
