Rating: [M]

Aroview: Extremely powerful documentary about the 'occupation' of Tibet by China, where the world's last Buddhist state was invaded by the new Communist regime in 1949 and has remained there ever since.

Opening with upsettingly raw footage of the late 1980s Chinese suppression of a rebellion which involved the torture and killing of unarmed monks and protesters, this settles into a fairly thorough examination of this sore-point of world human rights. Features extensive interviews with many notable Tibetans. Narrated by Martin Sheen, Susan Sarandon and Ed Harris.
