I would like to talk about the movie “Mountain Patrol”, filmed in 2004 by the Chinese director Chuan Lu. The peculiarity of this director's narrative is inherent in all of his films, but here he surpassed himself.

I believe that his film was a key moment in the struggle to save the antelope Chiru, not only in China but ...
