For around fifteen years, no Western camera has been able to get to the heart of Tibet. In this challenging and revelatory doc, Director Jean-Michel Carré gains authorisation over several months to film the human, economic and political realities of the region – one that exists outside time, but which is still in constant evolution towards a modernity imposed by China. With contributions from residents and regional experts, the film generates a new perspective on this region, which has become, despite existing under China’s control, a nexus of global geopolitical influence.
