'Mulan' and 'Whale Rider': Director Niki Caro's take on Gender Inequality
Indie director, Niki Caro (known for 'Whale Rider') directs the live-action 'Mulan' and sets another example of strong females fighting against gender inequality.

The 13th Dalai Lama has just died. The armies of the terrible Warlord are at the gates. The fate of Tibet seems sealed. But a vision emerges from the waters of the Great Lake of Prophecies. Does it point the way to the Dalai's new reincarnation? Only he could save Tibet. The situation is almost desperate, but a small expedition has set out from Shangri-La to find him. It is an improvised and apparently ill-assorted team consisting of Alexandra, a very young French explorer, Aphur, a young warrior monk, and Kewstang, an elderly and very friendly Lama. Will the trio be able to find the new 14th Dalai and save Tibet?
