ESCAPE FROM TIBET



Thursday 12th July 7.30pm
Bar Convent, Blossom Street, York

Nick Gray wanted to make a film about the Chinese oppression of Tibetans. Since it was impossible for him to film in Tibet itself he instead filmed the exodus of a group of the many thousands of Tibetans who escape by climbing over the highest mountain range in the world, on a journey through Nepal to India. We were spellbound by this emotional rollercoaster of a film and glad to hear more from Nick afterwards about its making and the fate of those featured in it.
