Highlights from the BFI National Archive's extensive collection of films shot in Tibet prior to the Chinese occupation can now be seen in the BBC/BFI co-production, 'The Lost World of Tibet' (2008). Featuring a potent interview with the Dalai Lama an extended version the documentary is available to buy on DVD from the BFI Filmstore - http://filmstore.bfi.org.uk/acatalog/...
This film was shot by Sir Basil Gould who succeeded Derek Williamson as Political Officer of Sikkim, Bhutan and Tibet in 1935. His films record two visits to Lhasa. The first, Lhasa (1936), shows his Diplomatic Mission to the Tibetan capital. His cameraman Frederick Spencer Chapman was commissioned by the BFI in 1937 to write an article for Sight and Sound magazine describing that visit ("Tibetan Horizon"). The film features an intriguing sequence of Tibetan women playing darts. (Jan Faull)
You can now watch over 20 hours of films made in Tibet between 1922 and 1949 in the Mediatheque at BFI Southbank. These include the films of plant hunter and botanist George Sherriff (his love of nature is reflected in the remarkable jewel-like colours of his films); Frederick Bailey: Political Agent, butterfly collector and spy and remarkable footage of Mallory and Irvine's ill-fated attempt to conquer Everest. http://www.bfi.org.uk/mediatheque

Do you want to know why? Because the CCP needs to use the Tibetans as an excuse in their domestic politics to distract the majority of the "Chinese" people so they don't think about the reality of their situation under occupation by the regime.
Regime = system of government. Which is perhaps a fraction polite when referring to the communist party
From ninecommentaries. com (remove space)
On How the Chinese Communist Party Is an Evil Cult The Communist Party is essentially an evil cult that harms mankind. Although the Communist Party has never called itself a religion, it matches every single trait of a religion. At the beginning of its establishment, it regarded Marxism as the absolute truth in the world.
It exhorted people to engage in a life-long struggle for the goal of building a communist heaven on earth.

Tibet and China will be free from the evil communist CULT.
Tibet did away with the death penalty nearly 100 years ago. But then the backwards communists invaded and put humans rights on a backwards path.
Tibetans were happy in Tibet in 1948. No stupid death sentences or torture.
