»There is something about the heart of this film that draws you in. /…/ The stars are the animals in all their wild glory, as we have never seen them before, and man in reverence and wonder.«
- Warren Ellis
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
