Seeds of Tibet: Voices of Children in Exile
by Peter Yost
|
"This extraordinary film shows what children can do -- become our teachers, our moral guides... Evokes the narrative capacity of children in a wonderfully instructive and compelling way."
MORE ABOUT THE FILM
|
Thousands of Tibetan children have left their families behind and fled over dangerous mountain passes to join refugee schools in northern India. In the compelling and intimate Seeds of Tibet, we follow four children as they overcome tremendous hardship to get a modern education. This rivetting and inspiring film speaks to all communities where children face violence, separation from their families, or a rapidly changing world that leaves them alienated and adrift. Includes the Dalai Lama and music by Philip Glass.
Appropriate for:
26 minutes • VHS
