Vintage color footage of Tibet from the 1930s to 1950s joins modern footage and interviews to show viewers what Tibet was like when it was free and, by contrast, what the Chinese have made of Tibet.
In the interviews, the Dalai Lama, ordinary Tibetans, and British and Chinese observers discuss the transition between traditional Tibetan culture and the contemporary culture under occupation. "A wide-ranging discussion of Tibet, taking in its geography, its culture and society, the everyday, and, of course, its religion…[as well as] ample coverage of modern day living," says DVD Times, and MovieMail praises the documentary’s "dazzling array of ceremonies and rituals, costumes and landscapes."
