Hannah: Buddhism's Untold Journey (hannah)

(Kino Lorber) Hannah: Buddhism’s Untold Journey tells the story of Hannah Nydahl and her adventure bringing Tibetan Buddhism to the West.

From her wild and idealistic roots as a hippie in Copenhagen, the film follows Hannah and her husband Ole to the hedonistic [Buddhist but officially Hindu] city of Kathmandu, Nepal.

Hannah: Buddhism's Untold Journey - Hannah

This is where in 1968 they became two of the first Western students of His Holiness the 16th Karmapa (Rangjung Rigpe Dorje) -- the first consciously reincarnated (tulku) lama of Tibet, and the man who would change their lives forever.

At the heart of the film lies the unique and inspiring love story of Hannah and Ole and their unwavering dedication to bring Buddhism to the West.
