“When he comes, he'll be a child and have to be looked after,” muses Choenzey Samdub about the reincarnation of his mentor, Khensur Rinpoche, a revered Tibetan monk who died in exile in southern India. Samdub, having devoted himself to Khensur Rinpoche in life, following his death searches and waits for signs of his reincarnation. When a three-year-old boy in Tibet reportedly shows extraordinary qualities, Samdub consults with the Dalai Lama and embarks on a daring trip into Chinese-occupied Tibet to bring the boy out. Thus begins a tender relationship between Samdub and the boy who was once a father to him. A fascinating and warm look at a life of devotion, and the continuity of Tibetan culture in exile.
