Wiki.

Red River Valley (Chinese: 红河谷; pinyin: Hóng hégǔ) is a 1997 film directed by Feng Xiaoning about the British expedition to Tibet, starring Paul Kersey and Ning Jing. It was also released under the title A Tale of the Sacred Mountain. A book by Peter Fleming, Ian Fleming's brother, is credited in the movie. In 1961, Fleming published Bayonets to Lhasa: The First Full Account of the British Invasion of Tibet in 1904.

The film won numerous prizes at China's three main award ceremonies: Huabiao, Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers.

The film's production was part of an official Chinese government effort - also reflected in the national curriculum - to incorporate the expedition to Tibet into the story of the century of humiliation narrative that China suffered at the hands of Western and Japanese invaders and commercial interests.
