Dan Cruickshank presents this illuminating documentary about life in Tibet prior to the brutal Chinese occupation of 1950. Colour films dating back to that period have been carefully restored, revealing significant details about Tibetan culture, which was very insular and revolved around religious ritual. An interview with the Dalai Lama offers further insight into this fascinating chapter in world history.
