Women of Tibet: A Quiet Revolution Directed by Rosemary Rawcliffe
On
March 12, 1959, 15,000 unarmed Tibetan women took to the streets of
Lhasa to oppose the violent occupation of their country by the Communist
Chinese army. For the first time on film, three generations of Tibetan
women and His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama tell the story of one of the
great movements of nonviolent resistance in modern history.
