About In Search of Kundun

In Search of Kundun (1998), directed by Michael H. Wilson, is a documentary about the making

of Martin Scorsese’s Oscar-nominated feature film, Kundun, which documented the life of His

Holiness the 14 th Dalai Lama. Hailed by the Los Angeles Times as “penetrating and insightful,” In

Search of Kundun documents “emotion-filled” encounters between Scorsese’s film crew and

the Tibetans who star in the picture. Shot on location in Morocco and India, it features

interviews with His Holiness, as well as Martin Scorsese, Melissa Mathison, and Dante Ferretti.

Running time: 1 hour, 25 minutes.
