Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion" in English language version.
'Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion,' the most comprehensive and devastating documentary yet on that tragic country, ends with a note of optimism from the Dalai Lama in the face of the suffering and oppression of his people. However, the breadth and depth that director Tom Peosay and writers Sue Peosay and Victoria Mudd have brought to their film suggest how bleak the prospects really are for the Tibetan people. Since the Chinese invaded Tibet, which has a population of 6 million, in the wake of the Communist Revolution more than half a century ago, an estimated 1.2 million Tibetans have died in the course of a brutal occupation, and approximately 3,000 people risk their lives every year hiking over the Himalayas to escape.
Tom Peosay's documentary 'Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion' is an impeccably made, often moving account of the captive nation of Tibet, forcibly annexed by China more than 50 years ago. (...) in fact, the monasteries were systematically destroyed by Chinese military forces in the late 1950s and early 60s. (...) A more concise and affecting summation of the Tibetan crisis would be hard to imagine.
