    Documentaries can be informative, entertaining and provocative, but rare is the documentary that makes you feel so engaged (and enraged) that it prompts you to action somehow. Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion is that kind of film.

    Rather than rage, Peosay's film radiates sadness over a singular way of life in danger of imminent obliteration.
