The most remote province of Laos; bordering with China. Small tribal villages clinging to imposing mountain ridges where time seems to stand still. An epic climb in the dense rain forest to discover one of the most isolated ethnic minorities: the Akha-Noukouy. A patriarchal society, rudimentary, but self sufficient. Its survival depending on a pivotal connection with nature. A journey in a reality strongly attached to its traditions, but fascinated by development; resisting, but at the same time, giving in to the change occurring in the rest of the country.

La provincia più remota del Laos. Terra di confine con la Cina. Piccoli villaggi tribali arroccati sui crinali di imponenti montagne, dove il tempo sembra essersi fermato. Un’epica ascesa nella fitta foresta pluviale, per scoprire una delle più isolate minorità etniche: gli Akha-Noukouy. Una società patriarcale, rudimentale ma autosufficiente. La sua sopravvivenza dipendente da una cruciale connessione con la natura. Un viaggio in una realtà fortemente attaccata alle tradizioni ma affascinata dallo sviluppo; che resiste, ma al contempo cede, al cambiamento in atto nel resto della nazione.
