Directed by Marie Joual de Poncheville, Franz-Christoph Giercke.
France, 1991, 35mm, color, 86 min.

Exquisitely photographed images of one of the most splendid areas on earth are contrasted in the narration with the horrors inflicted on Tibet during forty years of Chinese occupation.

(She was under house arrest by the Chinese for two months when she made this documentary.)
