THE VELVET QUEEN

In the heart of the Tibetan highlands, multi-award-winning nature photographer Vincent Munier
guides writer Sylvain Tesson on his quest to document the infamously elusive snow leopard.
Munier introduces Tesson to the subtle art of waiting from a blind spot, tracking animals, and
finding the patience to catch sight of the beasts. 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.
