SYNOPSIS
Tibet in Song is both a celebration of traditional Tibetan folk music and a
harrowing journey into the past fifty years of cultural repression inside
Chinese controlled Tibet. Director and former Tibetan political prisoner, Ngawang
Choephel, weaves a story of beauty, pain, brutality and resilience, introducing
Tibet to the world in a way never before seen on film.
The beauty of traditional Tibetan folk music is showcased through a variety of
working songs, songs about family and the beauty of the land. These rarely seen
performances are deftly juxtaposed against startling footage of the early days
of the Chinese invasion and a concise explanation of the factors leading to the
Dalai Lama's flight into exile in 1959. Ngawang Choephel sets the stage for a
unique exploration of the Chinese impact on Tibetans inside Tibet.
What follows is a heartbreaking tale of cultural exploitation and resistance,
which includes Ngawangs' own eventual imprisonment for recording the very songs
at the center of the film. Tibet in Song provides raw and uncensored look at
Tibet as it stands today, a country plagued by Chinese brutality, yet willing
to fight for the existence of its unique cultural heritage.
