The Tibetans Youth in Melbourne had organized the fund raising documentary film "Fire Under the Snow" at Nova Cinema hall 6:30pm on 12th June 2011.
The film night started with Miss. Tenzin Choezom rundown the night program with introduction of Mr. Tenzin Choegyal and he presented beautiful Tibetan song and followed by empowered speech by Associate professor Mr. John Bradley, Monash University. Deputy Director-Monash Indigenous Centre.
The powerful and harrowing film of Ven. Palden Gyatso, a Buddhist monk since childhood, was arrested by the Chinese Communist Army in 1959. He spent the next 33 years in prison for the "crimes" of peaceful demonstration and refusal to denounce his apolitical teacher as an Indian spy. He was tortured, starved and sentenced to hard labor. He watched his nation and culture destroyed, his teachers, friends and family displaced, jailed or killed under Chinese occupation.
Eventually, project initiator Mr. Tenzin Lobsang had debriefed about the Tibet and Current situation and how this project had been started and its importance.
I would like to sincerely Thank to all the supporters and members to made that meaningful night successful. I look forward to seeing you all in the future fund raising events and activities to support for the orphanage schools in Tibet.
