Within a culture long revered for spirituality and the high value placed on inner beauty, a maverick Tibetan promoter engages in a seemingly most un-Tibetan undertaking: a western-style beauty pageant. For the past decade, young Tibetan women from around the world have gathered in Dharamsala, India, the Himalayan home of the Tibetan Government-in-Exile, to participate. MISS TIBET: BEAUTY IN EXILE follows a Tibetan-American teenager as she travels to India to compete in what its founder calls a ‘beauty pageant with a difference.’
