In 1959 the 14th Dalai Lama escaped to India to live in exile. During the years thereafter, numerous airplanes from India with Tibetan babies land at the airport in Zurich. Among them are the two siblings Losang and Dechen Barshee. Before leaving the airport, the two are separated from one another.
Time passes and they, too, become “real” Swiss, though their appearance remains Tibetan. Only now – 40 years later – does the . rst opportunity to travel to Tibet together with their mother arise. It is intended to be a journey into the past, a journey into the unknown, a journey back to their roots. It unfolds differently.
