Wiki.
Delamu (simplified Chinese: 茶马古道：德拉姆; traditional Chinese: 茶馬古道：德拉姆; pinyin: Cha ma gudao: de la mu) is a 2004 documentary film directed by Fifth Generation Chinese filmmaker, Tian Zhuangzhuang. Delamu documents the people living in the Nujiang River Valley, along the Tea Horse Road, an ancient trade route between China's Yunnan province and Tibet. The film was jointly produced by companies in the People's Republic of China, and Japan. It had its American premier at the 2004 Tribeca Film Festival.
The title "Delamu" refers to the Tibetan word for "peaceful angel", and the name of one of the mules owned by a villager in the film.
