The Velvet Queen La panthère des neiges
In the heart of the Tibetan highlands, photographer Vincent Munier takes writer Sylvain Tesson on his quest to find the snow leopard. He introduces him to the subtle art of waiting in a blind spot, tracking animals and finding the patience to catch sight of the beasts. On their journey through the Tibetan peaks, inhabited by invisible presences, the two men engage in a conversation about our place among the living beings and celebrate the beauty of the world.
directed by Marie Amiguet, Vincent Munier, featuring Vincent Munier, Sylvain Tesson
