The Velvet Queen

"Gorgeous, humbling, looking out-, up- and inward, the documentary 'The Velvet Queen' is the rare nature film about not only beauty and beasts but also the very human urge to make sense of our place in it all." - Los Angeles Times

"Nature documentaries don’t get much better than Marie Amiguet and Vincent Munier’s captivating journey to the Tibetan mountains, where we follow two men on a quest to find and photograph the elusive, reclusive snow leopard. Besides the stunning, stirring camerawork, 'Queen' one-ups other adventure docs with its meditative quality, an approach that captures the essence of why nature photographer Munier and writer Sylvain Tesson embarked on the trip in the first place. 4/4 stars." San Jose Mercury

Through their journey in the Tibetan peaks, inhabited by invisible presences, the two men ponder humankind's place amongst the magnificent creatures and glorious landscapes they encounter along the way.

Original Soundtrack by Nick Cave & Warren Ellis
