Snow Leopard Sisters
MONDAY, APRIL 27 @ 7:00pm
In Nepal’s remote Dolpo region, where fewer than 90 snow leopards remain, conservationist Tshiring Lhamu Lama returns home with a mission: to save endangered animals. She takes on 17-year-old Tenzin Bhuti Gurung as her apprentice — a girl whose family has suffered from snow leopard attacks on their livestock. As they trek through the treacherous yet breathtaking Himalayan landscape, Tshiring helps Tenzin understand the delicate balance between protecting wildlife and supporting herding communities. Through intimate verité footage and stunning cinematography, Snow Leopard Sisters captures the power of women’s voices in shaping a better future for themselves and the elusive snow leopard.
Film and Fundraiser!
Following the movie, the snow leopard conservationist featured in the film, Tshiring Lhamu, will give a talk on her work and do a Q & A.
