Beyond Fear
With opening words by Richard Gere, this film documents the remarkable courage of Nawang, a 13-year-old Buddhist Nun and Bagdro, a 20-year-old Buddhist monk who lead freedom demonstrations against the Chinese occupation of Tibet. Following a brutal military crackdown, they’re arrested and endure horrific torture until a global movement spearheaded by Amnesty International and International Campaign for Tibet culminates in their release. Through the power of a positive mind and inspired by the Dalai Lama, Bagdro and Nawang forgive their former torturers as they find a way beyond fear.
This film was made possible with generous support from the Tibetan community including: International Campaign for Tibet, Students For Free Tibet,Tibet Information Network, The Tibet House, Office of Tibet, the Rubin Museum For Himalayan Art, Amnesty International and Home Planet Productions.
