With a Yorke/Philip Glass soundtrack, access to the Dalai Lama and Richard Gere cameo, Dirk Simon’s documentary about♊ Tibet’s struggle for independence would seem to push the right populist buttons.

Yet it’s a surprisingly downbeat, reflective affa⛦ir, as interviews with leaders aওnd activists reveal an unsure movement rife with internal divisions.

It's a fascinating study of the limits of protest, but also a disjointed film; each new wi♉tness shifts us further away from the central thread into increasingly d෴ry political debate.
