“A
more concise and affecting summation of the Tibetan
crisis would be hard to imagine.”
Dave Kehr, The New York
Times
“Documentaries can be informative,
entertaining and
provocative, but rare is the documentary that makes
you feel so engaged (and enraged) that it prompts
you to action somehow. ‘Tibet: Cry of the Snow
Lion’ is that kind of film…”
Jonathan Curiel, San Francisco
Chronicle

10 years in the making,
this provocative documentary was filmed during
a remarkable nine journeys throughout Tibet,
India and Nepal.
TIBET: CRY OF THE SNOW LION
brings audiences to the long-forbidden “rooftop
of the world” with an unprecedented
richness of imagery, from rarely seen rituals
in remote monasteries, to horse races with
Khamba warriors; from brothels and slums
in the holy city of Lhasa, to magnificent
Himalayan peaks still traveled by nomadic
yak caravans. The dark secrets of Tibet’s
recent past are powerfully chronicled through
riveting personal stories and interviews,
and a collection of undercover and archival
images never before assembled in one film.
A
definitive exploration of a legendary subject,
TIBET: CRY OF THE SNOW LION is an epic story
of courage and compassion .
