Title: Questions for who?
Review: This is billed as a film about the Dalai Lama, but I think he only gets roughly 5 or 10 minutes of its entire length. The rest of the time, the film is being poorly narrorated by its writer/director. It seems as though the questions he wrote were intended more to capture his personal musings on film than to hear the answers of the Dalai Lama. I didn't even find the questions that enlightening. In the end, it seems to be more about the film director than about the Dalai Lama, which is a shame because the latter is such a fascinating human being and the latter, at least by comparison, not so much. It gets two stars for when the Dalai Lama actually does get a chance to speak and for some of the beautiful scenery it depicts. Also has a little information on the history of Tibet, but less than you'd find in five minutes on Wikipedia.
