‘Compassion in Exile’
(Documentary | Duration: 60 min | Produced by: Lemle Pictures)
‘Compassion in Exile’
is an intimate portrait of Tenzin Gyatso,
the 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet,
whose thirty-year nonviolent struggle on behalf of his people
earned him the 1989 Nobel Peace Prize.
It is also a moving look at the brutal treatment endured by
the Tibetan people at the hands of the Communist Chinese,
who since 1950 have sought to eradicate the Tibetans' culture and
religion.
Speaking with unprecedented candor,
the Dalai Lama describes his upbringing and
key moments in his life,
while his countrymen bear witness to their
personal ordeals.
Featuring never-before-seen footage and beauty of Tibet,
‘Compassion in Exile’
is at once a testament to the humility and
gentle wisdom of a great spiritual leader and
a heartfelt plea for the salvation of a people.
