Demystifying Tibet Many works are devoted to Tibet’s mystique – its beautiful scenery, exotic customs and wise lamas – but few explore ordinary life. Sun Shuyun went to live in Gyantse, Tibet’s third largest town, for 18 months. Her stay resulted in a five-episode documentary focusing on the majority of Tibetans. By recording their lives over four seasons, Sun hopes to leave a record for future researchers.
