Lhasa and the Spirit of Tibet: Sites of the World's Cultures

Will the culture of native Tibet eventually become extinct? This illuminating program surveys how the rapidly expanding Chinese population has made it increasingly difficult for Tibetans to freely practice their essential traditions. Along with the incredible footage shot in the city of Lhasa, viewers will learn how the Dalai Lama has maintained his powerful leadership even as that circle of influence has tightened around his followers. 57 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital stereo.
