Escape over the Himalaya

2003 · 30 min

Every year, hundreds of Tibetan children attempt the dangerous escape into exile in India. Many break down in the snow and die from exhaustion and the cold. We followed a group of refugee children across the snow passes of the Himalayas, all the way to the safe haven of Dharamsala, home to Tibet’s spiritual leader, His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
