At a Free Tibet demonstration in Moscow in 2001, a Swiss actress is captured on film being arrested. She catches people.s attention for her passion and her striking, Tibetan beauty. A German publisher suggests she tells the world her story. The result is this breathtaking book about Yangzom Brauen.s Tibetan heritage, and most particularly her extraordinary grandmother and mother, who fled Tibet in the early 1950s when the Chinese came to take their country away.
