I watched a movie ,Kundun, directed by Martin Scorcese, it held no punches regarding the Chinese atrocities in Tibet, it was made in 1997. American made film about the Dalai Lama. It was made by Universal, who was bought out by Seagrams. The CEO of Seagram Edgar Bronfam Jr would not release it, due to pressure, as Seagrams sells liquor to China, it ended up at Disney, it was released on Christmas Day in 1997, due to pressure by the Chinese Communist party , it was a very limited release, in only two theatres, and distribution was very limited, so, unofficially, it was banned. I did see it in an "art house" cinema, known for good but small and controversial films.The movie was beautifully shot, filmed in Morocco, and I advise anyone who can to watch it, as I said, it pulls no punches. No matter what you think of Bhuddism, it clearly depicts what the Chinese Communist party does to nations it takes over. While not banned, it was silenced for main distribution. Its available for purchase as a DVD, and can be watched to stream on Amazon, Google play, and MUBI.
