GRINGO

A loud American woman is seated with two monks and an elegant Tibetan wearing a black shirt and a fawn coloured sweater. She makes a call on her mobile. She says into the phone that one of the monks has smuggled a text out of China. She says the name of the author. She says, he was tortured to death by the Chinese. She a little money for the translation. She wonders if the person on the other end of the line wants to do it.
