In Search of Kundun with Martin Scorsese is a deeply insightfuI film documenting the
unique encounter of filmmaker Martin Scorsese (The lrishman, Raging Bull, Taxi Driver) with the Tibetan peopIe and their spirituaI Ieader, the 14th Dalai Lama. FiImed in 1997, this emotional saga takes us from the set of Kundun in Morocco, where Scorsese recreates the vanishing Tibetan culture, to the foothiIls of the HimaIayas in Dharamsala, India at
the DaIai Lama’s residence-in-exiIe. His HoIiness reminisces about his youth, the plight of Tibet, and offers a vision for the future. Director MichaeI H. WiIson skilIfuIly weaves together rare archival footage of Tibet with behind-the-scenes commentary by Martin Scorsese, screenwriter Melissa Mathison, cinematographer Roger Deakins, production designer Dante Ferretti and Tibetan cast members with no previous acting experience who convey poignant real Iife perspectives on an epic journey.
