Critic Reviews

A sensitive if literal-minded tale that demonstrates how Tibet's national identity is of a piece with its spiritual heart.Full Review

Robert Koehler
Variety

It's a Tibetan film -- a rare thing -- made by Tibetans, starring Tibetans, and set in the increasingly desperate exile community of Dharamsala .Full Review

Ty Burr
Boston Globe

Primped for easy American consumption, this clunkily performed and staged drama concerns a filmmaker's agenda to document Tibetan oppression under Chinese occupation. This becomes spurious pretext for a rather flat Nancy Drew adventure.Full Review

Village Voice

The script is undone by confusing romantic developments, a convoluted murder mystery and a facile and maudlin resolution.Full Review

Bill White
Seattle Post-Intelligencer

A static and awkward effort that never quite comes to life.Full Review
