Inside China: The Battle for Tibet

Overview

For the first time in nearly two decades, documentary filmmakers venture undercover into Tibet to explore China's increasing dominance over its people. Risking arrest and navigating Beijing's sophisticated surveillance, they capture the reality of life in one of the world's most tightly controlled and overlooked regions. As the Dalai Lama turns 90 this year, the question of his succession becomes increasingly urgent. The film delves into the case of a missing boy, the 11th Panchen Lama, who was taken by the Chinese government 30 years ago, a figure whose fate is crucial to both the Dalai Lama's legacy and Tibet's future.
