‘A Year in Tibet’ follows the author as she lives for eighteen months in a remote village in Tibet.

She and a team who were half Chinese and half Tibetan, lived and worked there for eighteen months, filming and recording daily life. ‘A Year in Tibet’ is an insight into the relationship between the Chinese and Tibetans, the history behind it, and the way the two interact in the 21st century.
