10 Questions for the Dalai Lama DVD

Peter Kater

  In10 Questions for the Dalai Lama cinematographer/writer/director Rick Ray (Raise the Bamboo Curtain; The Soul of India) masterfully weaves the spiritual and historical to produce an illuminating portrait of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama. Filmed at his place of exile, a modest Buddhist monastery in Dharamsala, India, 10 Questions or the Dalai Lama includes rare archival footage of the Dalai Lama's youth; the Chinese invasion and the consequential struggle.

The interview encompasses issues of Tibet's conflicted political history with China, democracy, freedom of speech, globalisation and modernity, raising such questions as : How do you reconcile commitment to non-violence when faced with violence: Why do the poor often seem happier than the rich? Must a society lose its traditions in order to move into the future: The film is also charmed by the spiritual leader's personality revealing a jovial, charismatic, relentlessly curious and wise man.
