The snow leopard is one of the most elusive and endangered species on the planet, but their predatory nature often brings them into conflict with people living in the Himalaya. That conflict is the subject of a great looking new film called The Lama and the Snow Leopard, which is being made by Chinese director Zhou Bing, who traveled to the mountains to shoot his documentary. He chronicles the efforts of Lama Zhujia, a Buddhist monk who strives to bring harmony between the big cats and the people whose herds they prey upon.
The teaser trailer for the film can be found below and the visuals look beautiful.
