Today’s program: a screening of “The Sun Behind the Clouds: Tibet’s Struggle for Freedom” (79 minutes)

Over 50 years have passed since the fall of Tibet. The Dalai Lama, Tibet’s spiritual and temporal leader, has lived in exile for most of his life, trying to find a peaceful solution to the Tibet issue by giving up the goal of independence and reaching a compromise with China. But his efforts have failed to yield any positive outcome and his people are becoming more desperate.

Today’s program: a screening of “Projections of America” (60 minutes) that tells the story of a team of idealistic filmmakers who, during the darkest days of World War II, had hoped that the power of the movies could reshape the world. As Allied forces liberated Western Europe, the military campaign was accompanied by a vast propaganda effort, and at its center were 26 short documentaries about American life targeted at the newly-liberated populations.
