"How we can learn about ecological solutions from an ancient culture? Ladakh, or Little Tibet, is a wildly beautiful desert land high in the western Himalayas. It is a place of few resources and an extreme climate. Yet, for more than a thousand years, it has been home to a thriving culture. Then came development. Centuries of ecological balance and social harmony are under threat from modernization. The breakdown of Ladakh's culture and environment forces us to re-examine what we really mean by progress."@en . "Documentary films" . "Documentary films"@en . . . . . . .

"This film is about Ladakh, or \"Little Tibet\", a land with few resources & extreme climate in the Western Himalayas. The 1st part shows the traditional way of life of its inhabitants ; their sense of cooperation coupled with an intimate and location-specific knowledge of the environment enabled the Ladakhis not only to survive for more than a thousand years but to prosper.
