“Enlightening... provocative... highly engaging.” - THE WASHINGTON POST
Part biography, part philosophy, part adventure and part politics, 10 Questions for The Dalai Lama opens a window into the heart of an inspiring man.
Director Rick Ray explores some of the fundamental questions of our time including, How do you reconcile a 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?
Through his thought provoking responses we witness the depth of wisdom of this extraordinary spiritual leader as well as gain an insight into the humor and personality that has sustained the Dalai Lama for 68 years from the age of 4, as Tibetan leader – 49 of those years in exile from his homeland and people. Footage is also included of the Dalai Lama’s many journeys throughout the world during which he often spontaneously breaks rank with tradition hugging well-wishers and informally joking with many of the world’s leaders as if they were his boyhood friends.
Footage supplied by individuals who at great personal risk, filmed with hidden cameras within Tibet is also included.
“Expertly merging the mystical and the mundane, Ray presents a warm and well-rounded portrait of his subject, his Buddhist philosophies and the painful circumstances of his exile to a modest monastery in Dharamsala, India.” - THE NEW YORK TIMES
