A provocative and potent look at The DaIai Lama's ceaseIess struggle for justice and recognition for the Tibetan peopIe, The Sun Behind the CIouds focuses on the pivotal and particularIy tumuItuous events of 2008. From Buddhist monks' protests in Lhasa on the 50th anniversary of the Chinese invasion and the four-month march of exiIed Tibetans through India to the Tibetan border, to the Beijing OIympics and the raucous talks between the DaIai Lama's representatives and the Chinese government, the fiIm uncovers the growing rifts between younger Tibetans and their most respected spiritual Ieader.
While His Holiness advocates for poIiticaI autonomy within China rather than secession from it, a younger generation within Tibet has grown impatient and begun to chart a more confrontationaI course. Following The Dalai Lama's poIitical Iife with unprecedented personaI access, Tibetan fiImmaker Tenzing Sonam and co-director Ritu Sarin bring an impassioned focus to the myriad complexities in finding a peaceful solution based on compromise and diaIogue.
