HAWAII FILM EVENT - Honokaa (HI) - Film Screening & DirectorQ&A - Dalai Lama Awakening (narrated by Harrison Ford) & Compassion in Action
2015-03-31 19:00 | Honokaa People’s Theatre, 45-3574 Mamane St, Honokaa, HI, 96727, United States
(PLEASE SHARE with your friends & family in HONOKAA HAWAII- the Big Island)
This is a very SPECIAL HONOKAA, HAWAII FILM SCREENING of 2 new Dalai Lama Documentary Films during a 100-city U.S.-Canada “Dalai Lama Double Feature” Film Tour (with a in-person Q&A with Film Director Khashyar Darvich. Two new films will be screened: ‘Dalai Lama Awakening' (narrated by actor Harrison Ford) and ‘Compassion in Action').
The films and Director Khashyar Darvich just returned from a very successful 36-city film tour of England, Scotland and Ireland, and now the films and Director are beginning a 100-city tour of the U.S. and Canada.
Trailer for ‘Dalai Lama Awakening': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgiNutr0pig
Trailer for ‘Compassion in Action': ttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zTnJxOM-aw
“Many films talk about how we need to become better people to make positive change in the world,” writes the Toronto Film Scene, “but few make the argument as convincing as this one. The presence of the Dalai Lama is what makes this film so powerful, and you can almost feel his kindness and love through the screen. If you’re searching for something to inspire you, look no further than this film.”
In a “5 Star” Review, Examiner.com calls Dalai Lama Awakening “a beautiful and thought-provoking film… [Director] Darvich's compassion and humanity is apparent… Note [the premiere] date because you will want to mark it on your calendar.”
“Visually compelling, inspiring and thought-provoking,” writes Tom Richards of ‘Surviving Ireland.' “Darvich has put together a compelling, slow-burning documentary.”
(Tickets for the double feature are $12 General, $10 Seniors/ Students).
