Tintin in Tibet (1960) is a story of friendship, devoid of all villains, and which recounts Tintin's desperate search for his lost friend. Chang, a young Chinese boy en route to Europe, is the victim of an aeroplane crash in the Himalayas.

This poignant adventure demonstrates that loyalty and hope can overcome all obstacles and that preconceived ideas, such as the fear of the "abominable snowman", are often the result of sheer ignorance.
