Introduction
This past January, 17 students and teachers from THE BUILDING SOCIETY visited a remote Tibeto-Burman ethnic group in western China. The stories about their close relationship to animals, modern romance and how to live together are the basis of these films. Both traditional and modern, the tales of these villagers give surprising insight into the challenges of technology, communities and climate change that we all face today.
