Fifty years after the invasion by communist China, a new generation of Tibetans born in exile in India have not forgotten a Tibet they have never seen. They are united around the Dalai Lama but also busy surviving the harsh environment of India in settlements too crippled by unemployment and diseases to efficiently fight China. Thru waves of joy and sorrow, they prepare their youth to preserve a culture on the decline. The world of spirits and wrathful deities is engaged in fiery battles as everything must pass on the earth plane. Tibetans live and die in non-violence knowing Tibet must be freed against all odds. Dolma, an invisible woman in quest of herself in a troubled world, voices her frustration as our witness in this poignant documentary shot in a dozen refugee camps. | | Sales Rank: | 60,299th |
