Tashi Jong
Interviews with Tibetan-born Refugees
Tibetans in Exile - it appears, have found a new home in the small and peaceful village of Tashi Jong. Set amidst the foothills of the Indian Himalayas, it offers them a simple life and their own community.
However, the vision of reclaiming the homeland one day has shaped the Exile-Tibetan identity for over forty years. Will new generations keep this dream alive, even realize it within their own lifetime? Or will it fade like the memory of a too distant relative? These are some of the memories, realities and hopes that Tashi Jong's older generation passes on to their young.
