2025
We welcome you to join us for this cinematic interview with the Dalai Lama on the big screen in Downtown Charlottesville on Tuesday, April 21st.
“This quietly powerful new documentary, centered on an intimate encounter with His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, offers a rare antidote to the burnout of modern life. It doesn’t lecture but invites you into a luminous, quietly revolutionary true story about a remarkable man that reminds us that the path to joy begins in a more profound connection to the world around us.” - April Neale
