Summer Pasture: Education is a Priority

In this update with the subjects of the Independent Lens documentary, Summer Pasture, we see Locho and Yama's daughter Tsering Tsomo -- now 5 years old -- and her 3 year old sister, Drolkar Lhamo. Both parents agree that sending their girls to school is a high priority for the family, so that they will have greater opportunities and an appreciation for their Tibetan heritage.
