Snow Leopards & Friends is the first Chinese documentary about the snow leopard (“the ghost of the mountain”). It offers a breath-taking visit to the remote Qinghai-Xizang Plateau in China’s Sanjiangyuan Nature Reserve. Renowned wildlife cameraman Xi Zhinong works with three young yak herders to capture the lives of this endangered species, the other fauna in the mountainous ecosystem, the stark beauty of the landscape, and the few families who live there.
Snow Leopards & Friends was an official section at seven international film festivals and has won four best nature documentary awards. You can watch a trailer at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YaVmD_qmm_w.
