THE LAST DALAI LAMA

Director: Mickey Lemle Theatrical release: July 28, 2017

THE LAST DALAI LAMA? takes a fresh look at what is important for the 14th Dalai Lama at 82: The historic confrontation between Tibet and China; his influence in political, spiritual, and educational spheres; and his personal feelings on aging, dying and the question: “Will there be a 15th Dalai Lama?” Filmmaker Mickey Lemle (RAM DASS, FIERCE GRACE) finds the 14th spiritual leader in this age-old lineage, and perhaps the last, at peace in his ninth decade. Original music score composed and performed by Philip Glass and Tibetan music phenom, Tenzin Choegyal.
