The majestic and unique landscapes of the Himalayas and the Qinghai Plateau bear witness to the delicate balance between life and the environment. In these two films, we will explore this sacred land, experiencing the life-saving efforts of those who tirelessly rescue and release animals in the alpine meadows. Through the eyes of children, we will explore the cycle of life and the interconnectedness of all beings. As we delve into the towering beauty of the Himalayas and the stories of life and death, we will engage in profound reflections on the fate of all living things.

Despite these challenges, he and his wildlife conservation "teammates" have always firmly believed that all living beings have spirits. They are convinced that the animals they tirelessly rescue and release back into the wild will, in turn, stand on a higher plane, watching over and protecting humanity.
