DESCRIPTION:COMPASSION IN EXILE:\nThe Story of the 14th Dalai Lama \nPresented by 
 Pamela Ayo Yetunde \n\nThis beautiful film is an intimate portrait of 
 Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet and Nobel Peace Prize laureate. 
 It is, at the same time, the saga of the suffering of the Tibetan people 
 under Chinese occupation. For over forty years the Dalai Lama has waged a 
 non-violent struggle in exile to bring world attention to the plight of his 
 Tibetan people and save their unique culture and religion. He is the 
 embodiment of the ideal of his Buddhist heritage and practice and his life 
 story is an inspiring lesson in compassion and peace. For this film, the 
 Dalai Lama personally granted director Mickey Lemle unprecedented access 
 and cooperation. With candor and humor, he describes his upbringing and key 
 moments in his life, detailing historic events including his becoming head 
 of state at the age of sixteen, journeying to Beijing at nineteen to 
 confront Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai, and fleeing to India at the age of 
 twenty. Tibetan exiles are interviewed for direct testimony about 
 conditions in Tibet under the Chinese, and the Dalai Lama himself voices 
 his concerns for Tibet, his lack of hatred of the Chinese, and his hopes 
 for a peaceful future. \n\nBefore and after the film, everyone's invited to 
 indulge in our Humanist Tea House \n\n$5 donations are accepted \n\n
