This film follows the Dalai Lama during the 2008 protests in Tibet, the Beijing Olympics, and the breakdown in talks with the Chinese government. Fifty years after the fall of his country, a rift between the Dalai Lama’s efforts for peace and the growing impatience of younger Tibetans becomes clear.
A documentary that seeks to challenge how the world views the struggle for an independent Tibet, tackling the reductive binaries of Chinese militarism vs Tibetan resistance. With remarkable access to the Dalai Lama, Sarin and Sonam bring personal insight to half a century of geopolitical complexity.
