A group of Tibetan rebels set up an armed resistance movement against Chinese occupation - defying the instructions of their spiritual head, the Dalai Lama.Lhasang grew up in Eastern Tibet but was forced to flee after the Chinese occupation, making the death-defying trek across the Himalayas with his family.

Norbu, the scion of an affluent Tibetan expatriate family, befriends Dolma, a young college student, and interacts with the newly arrived refugees from Tibet. He is drawn towards the resistance.
