“In this film, the Dalai Lama speaks directly to the audience and explains why the 21st century should become the century of compassion. The spiritual teacher manages to captivate us and touch our hearts – even those which have turned into stone from stress and the toughness of everyday life. A meditative cinematic experience that reverberates for a long time – with appealing imagery and unpublished material from archives of the Tibetan government,” a synopsis reads on the Zurich Film Festival’swebsite.
