It is mid-winter in southern Tibet, where temperatures regularly fall 20 degrees below freezing. In the Pel Kor monastery in Gyantse, the director Choephel discovers that some irreplaceable statutes have been stolen and he suspects it is an inside job. But the theft gives the local Communist Party an excuse to put in a government 'work team' to weed out the monks who they think are behaving badly.
Lhakpa, a rickshaw driver in town, heads north in search of a lucrative job on a building site, but he gets more than he bargained for. And Butri, a life-long communist party worker, gets an unpleasant surprise as she approaches her retirement. [S]
