How do you reconcile a commitment to non-violence when faced with violence? Why do the poor often seem happier than the rich? Must a society lose its traditions in order to move into the future? These are some of the questions posed to His Holiness the Dalai Lama by filmmaker and explorer Rick Ray. Ray examines some of the fundamental questions of our time by weaving together observations from his own journeys throughout India and the Middle East, and the wisdom of an extraordinary spiritual leader. This is his story, as told and filmed by Rick Ray during a private visit to his monastery in Dharamshala, India over the course of several months. Also included is rare historical footage as well as footage supplied by individuals who at great personal risk, filmed with hidden cameras within Tibet. Part biography, part philosophy, part adventure and part politics, “10 Questions for The Dalai Lama” conveys more than history and more than answers - it opens a window into the heart of an inspiring man. If you had only one hour, what would you ask?

Le temps s'écoule paisiblement dans la cour de Hamza, le tailleur, tandis que les femmes du quartier se réunissent pour travailler et pour parler entre elles. Le Sultan convoque ses notables. Salamatou et Bachir, deux reporters de Radio Nomade FM chassent les informations dans la ville. C'est Ramadan et la religion est dans tous les esprits. Devant la Grande Mosquée, les hommes prient. Dans une école coranique, des femmes se posent des questions. Des ruelles étroites, des maisons en terre, des cours animées : c'est Agadez, une ville dans le désert.
