Description:
With the unadulterated joy of a child at play, a giggling two and half year-old handles a number of objects that litter his table. To the boy, this is nothing more than a simple diversion. To the gathering of monks who surround him, it is a sacred process of insightful divination. For from this seemingly innocent game, the boy reveals himself as the fourteenth reincarnation of the Buddha of Compassion.
Director Martin Scorsese brings to the screen the true story of one of our era's most compelling and inspiring figures, the fourteenth Dalai Lama. Told through the eyes of His Holiness, "Kundun" chronicles his early life, from childhood through the Chinese occupation and his journey into exile. The film charts his extraordinary growth into a figure who raises the world's consciousness about the Buddhist society of the spirit, the plight of Tibet, and the sufferings endured by his people with unspeakable grace and dignity. It is the story of a remarkable boy, imbued with the insight and wisdom of centuries, whose will proves indomitable and spirit inviolate.
