Windhorse

Storyline

Secretly filmed inside Tibet, as well as in Kathmandu and in remote locations 12,500 feet up in the Himalayas, WINDHORSE is ìa riveting story full of unforgettable images. One of the best films of the year (Donna Bowman, Charlottesville Weekly.) In this remarkable drama three young Tibetans search for freedom in present-day, Chinese-occupied Tibet. In fact, the Chinese government has been so shaken by WINDHORSE, they’ve attempted to halt U.S. showings of it. Many of the Tibetan cast and crew have had to have their names witheld from the filmís credits for fear of reprisals. WINDHORSE is a beautiful and powerful film, full of the color and sound of Tibet, and full of its longing for freedom. In English and in Tibetan with English subtitles. Unrated. 1998.
