This documentary tells the powerful story of Kangyur Rinpoche, a renowned Tibetan Master. Heeding the imminent danger of the 1950’s Cultural Revolution, and under the instructions of the Dalai Lama, Rinpoche braved the dangerous journey over the Himalayan mountains to India where he rescued two tons of Buddhist texts that otherwise faced potential extinction.

When a young, exile Tibetan woman unexpectedly sees a man from her past, long-suppressed memories of her traumatic escape across the Himalayas are reignited and she is propelled on an obsessive search for reconciliation and closure.

Namdol Lhamo’s sentence, along with that of her companions, was further increased when they were discovered to be secretly recording protest songs in Drapchi Prison and smuggling the tapes to the outside world. She spent a total of 12 years in prison.
