Siberian Buddha (1997)

Authors of the film make the journey both real and mystical through the Buryatia. They are following their character lama Danzan — the spiritual leader and member of parliament of his mysterious country called Little Tibet. Lama Danzan is modern incarnation of the Agvan Dorzhiev, who was the teacher of Dalai-lama XIII and played an important role in the struggle between Britain, China and Russia for the dominance in Tibet at the beginning of XX century. Today lama Danzan is doing everything possible overcoming natural and mystic obstacles to build magic spokes, suburgans, which are believed by him and his followers to change the life of the country for the better .
