THE SUN BEHIND THE CLOUDS
Tibet's struggle for freedom.
A film by
Ritu Sarin and Tenzing Sonam
2009, India/UK, 79 minutes
A White Crane Films production
March 2008 TIBET
The biggest uprising since China took control of Tibet, sweeps through the country. Meanwhile, Tibetans in exile march on their homeland, determined to support their countrymen. This is a year of dramatic possibilities for Tibet. For more than 20 years, the Dalai Lama, Tibet’s spiritual and political leader, has pursued his Middle Way Approach: giving up the goal of Tibet’s independence in return for genuine autonomy. But China has consistently rejected his proposal. Now, more and more Tibetans are questioning his strategy. Can the Dalai Lama’s path of peace and compromise find a solution for Tibet? Or will the voices calling for independence prevail?
The Hollywood Reporter
14 January 2010
A potent update on Tibetans' 50-year struggle for justice and recognition…
The subtitle of new film "The Sun Behind the Clouds" – "Tibet's Struggle for Freedom" – refers not only to the half-century dispute between Tibet and China but also to the divisions that have arisen among Tibetans around their beloved leader. The film is essential viewing for anyone who cares about the fate of the mountain region and the legacy of the Dalai Lama.”
