Features: A rugged yet refined nation, a group of special yet ordinary people, who in a specific historical period, portray a human saga of rise and fall. A single Dust Settles, allows this nation living on the steps of the ancient plateau, with towering mountains, to rise resolutely from the valley of decline. Such an elevation is silent yet eternal. It belongs to this nation, and also to you and me. I believe that every nation has the essence of love flowing in its blood, and the pain that penetrates to the bone. The Jiarong Tibetans are daughters "married down" from the plateau to the river valleys. After over a thousand years, they have silently multiplied into a large family. They preserve the customs and language of their mothers' families based on their memories of their wedding days, keeping both love and pain. Generation after generation, they continue and inherit.
