Pandas with Debra Winger

Debra Winger’s goal to find a wild panda takes her right across China. Travelling with her son Noah, she journeys by boat, train and rickshaw from the bustling streets of Shanghai to the remote Qinling Mountains where one man holds the key to finding the rare and elusive panda. "Is there a place for the panda in China? Or is it endangered? I wanted to find out about the difficulties pandas are facing. But ultimately I wanted to see if I could find one of these enigmatic animals in the wild." Difficulties with their Chinese permissions threaten to thwart Debra Winger’s plans; even the weather conspires against them; but against all odds panda expert Professor Pan finally turns their dream into reality in the wonderful and moving climax to her quest.
