"Filmmaker Rick Ray examines some of the fundamental questions of our time by weaving together observations from his own journeys throughout India and the Middle East with the wisdom of an extraordinary spiritual leader. This is the Dalai Lama's story, as told and filmed by Ray over the course of several months and during a private visit to his monastery in Dharamsala, India. Also included is rare historical footage and footage supplied by individuals who, at great personal risk, filmed with hidden cameras within Tibet.üüüPart biography, part philosophy, part adventure, and part politics, “10 Questions for The Dalai Lama” conveys more than history and more than answers - it opens a window into the heart of a great man.üüüSome of the questions are: Why do the poor often seem happier than the rich? Must a society lose its traditions in order to move into the future? How do you reconcile a commitment to non-violence when faced with violence?üüüAwards: üGrand Festival Award Winner Berkley Film and Video FestivalüüBest Editing Award Winner Australian International Film FestivalüüBest of the Fest BENDFILM FestivalüüHumanitarian Award Winner Moondance International Film FestivalüüInspiration Award Winner Tahoe-Reno International Film FestivalüüGlobians Berlin- Opening Night SelectionüAudience Awards Compassionate Vision – Maui Film Festivalüüü“One comes away from ""10 Questions"" emboldened, energized, and sadder -- aware that peace remains so radical a concept that most of us aren't yet worthy of it.”üü – The Boston Globeüüü""Enlightening... provocative... highly engaging"" - The Washington Postüü“There have been several documentaries about the Dalai Lama, but few have done a better job of packaging the Tibetan religious leader's circumstances, both historical and current, along with his philosophies.” - San Francisco ChronicleüüüOriginal Music Score: Peter KaterüüüBonus Features: üInterview with director Rick RayüAdditional Selected ScenesüInterview with Tenzin Geyche TethongüTrailer üüüClosed Captioned: YesüCopyright: © RICK RAY FILMS 2006üRunning Time: 85 minutesüUPC: 012233000122üRating: Suitable For Family ViewingüRegion Encoding: Region One"
