THE UNWINKING GAZE is an observational portrait of the Dalai Lama as he tries to engage the Chinese government into accepting the need for a negotiated settlement on the future of Tibet. Filmmaker Joshua Dugdale spent a year bargaining with the Dalai Lama's Private Office to agree the access and over the following eighteen months we are party to the day-to-day agonies of a God King as he tries to strike a balance between his own personal vows as a Buddhist and the realpolitik required to bring China to the negotiating table. A modern day biblical epic, this film takes you inside the Dalai Lama's inner circle showing the titanic struggle of one of the most significant global figures of our time, leading his people through non-violence, in his efforts to engage China, perhaps for the final time.
