Nomad: Escape from Tibet

Nomad is a story of one Tibetan family's escape from Chinese oppression in their homeland to seek sanctuary in Nepal. The fraught journey from the security of the Changtang, the great northern plateau of Tibet, across the Tsangpo River and the passage of the Himalayas makes an exciting story that is based on the real life experiences of many refugees. When the Chinese soldiers capture the family, it is left to 16-year-old Tsedor with the help of his girl friend Chudun, to plan their escape from imprisonment and lead their young siblings over the Himalayas so they can fine freedom in exile in Nepal. This exciting story gives an excellent insight into the lives of the Tibetan nomads when they lived in freedom in their own homeland.
