  Shadow over Tibet:  Stories in Exile

Directed by Rachel Lyon and narrated by Richard Gere, Shadow over Tibet: Stories in Exile is a highly personalized account of the crises in Chinese-occupied Tibet and the attempts of Tiebetan refugees to maintain their ancient culture in exile while using non-violent means to bring peace and freedom to their homeland.

The documentary focuses its cameras on Norbu Samphell, one of 1,000 Tibetans-in-exile who recently emigrated to the United States, as he struggles to start a new life with the help of The Tibetan Resettlement Project - Chicago, an organization whose mission is to find sponsors and provide jobs, housing and health care for Tibetan immigrants in America.
