Shepherdess of the Glaciers (La Bergere Des Glaces) Film Screening

Way up in Ladakh—at 16,500 feet, somewhere in the Gya-Miru Valley—lives a shepherdess on an isolated, rock-strewn mountain. Her flock of 250 sheep and goats are her only companions, except for the troubling presence of wolves and a snow leopard; her only link with the outside world is a little transistor radio. This documentary presents an intimate portrait of a disappearing way of life—one marked by challenges and isolation, but also beauty and spiritual grace.
