- Goodbye Tibet is the story of a 20,000-foot high mountain pass on the border between Tibet and Nepal. For thousands of Tibetan refugees it has been their gateway to freedom - but for many it has been a fatal gauntlet. It is the story of Kelsang Jigme, a legend among the Tibetan guides who help refugees escape over the treacherous mountain pass. And it is the story of six children sent by their parents into freedom - and exile - across the highest mountain range in the world, and of the heartbreak of their parents who had to remain behind in Tibet. It is a story of imprisonment and torture - and of a love that transcends borders. Finally, Goodbye Tibet is the story of a family of kindred spirits formed over the years by all of the protagonists: the children, their mothers, Kelsang and other guides, and the filmmaker herself. A decade of destiny reflects the dreams, hopes and strength of a people, a culture and a religion facing the threat of extinction.
- Shot in the beautiful Annapurna region of the Himalayas, Trailblazing documents the pioneering spirit of the few women working as guides in the lucrative yet male-dominated adventure tourism sector in Nepal. Their niche are the many female tourists who come to Nepal every year to "trek" the mountainous routes from village to village. 'Trailblazing' profiles the remarkable story of the three determined sisters of the Chhetri family and how they came to operate the first and only female-owned trekking agency in a highly competitive industry. The sisters saw a niche in the market when some women tourists returning from treks told of incidents of inappropriate behaviour from their male guides. To meet the high demand for female guides, the sisters developed a training program to expand capacity for women in the industry, training over 500 women since 1998. This is also a first. 3 Sisters Adventure Trekking is a 'social enterprise', diverting a percentage of the annual income to building capacity for more women in the industry. The film also profiles several young trainees in the program and provides a sense of the social conditions and limited expectations for young Nepali women within Nepali culture.

- Mountains are the most prominent products of the immense forces which shape the living planet: tectonic drift, volcanic activity and erosion by wind, water, frost and precipitation.
