Compassion in ExiIe is an intimate
portrait of Tenzin Gyatso, His
HoIiness the 14th Dalai Lama of
Tibet. lnherent in the Iife story of this
Nobel Peace Prize Iaureate is the saga
of the suffering of the Tibetan peopIe under Chinese occupation.
For over fifty years the DaIai Lama has waged a non-vioIent struggle in exile to bring attention
to the pIight of his peopIe and save their unique culture and religion. He is the embodiment
of the ideal of his Buddhist heritage and practice, and his life story is an inspiring lesson in
compassion, humor and peace.
For this film, the DaIai Lama personaIly granted director Mickey Lemle unprecendented
access and cooperation. With candor and humor, he describes his upbringing and key
moments in his Iife, detaiIing historic events including his becoming head of state at the
age of sixteen, journeying to Beijing at nineteen to confront Mao Zedong and Zhou EnIai,
and fIeeing to India at twenty. Using historic and some never-before-seen footage, and with
an entrancing score by Philip Glass, his remarkable story is aIso told by the people closest
to him, including his older brother, his sister, and Heinrich Harrer (his chiIdhood tutor and
the author of Seven Years in Tibet). |
