			Dreaming Lhasa Ritu Sarin and Tenzing Sonam, India/UK, 2005; 91m Karma, a Tibetan filmmaker from New York, goes to Dharamsala––home to the exiled Dalai Lama––to make a film about former political prisoners who have escaped from Tibet. As their harrowing stories heighten her own sense of cultural alienation, she is especially drawn to Dhondup, an ex-monk who escaped after four years in prison for anti-Chinese activities. Together they embark on a journey into Tibet’s fractured past. HRWIFF 2006.		Buy Tickets Mon Jun 16: 4
			Silent Waters Sabiha Sumar, Pakistan, 2003; 99m In this rare window to a tumultuous period in Pakistani history––the late '70s, when the country swung toward Islamic extremism––Ayesha, an impoverished woman with liberal values, supports herself and her 18-year-old son Saleem by giving Koran lessons. Unwilling to submit to a rural life like his mother, Saleem looks to further his ambitions in town, where student activism is taking hold. As tensions heighten, Ayesha’s painful past returns to haunt her. ND/NF 2004.		Buy Tickets Tue Jun 17: 4

Vann confronts several of his former captors while Panh captures the facts on film, revealing that the terror of the Khmer Rouge was felt by torturers and victims alike.
