Austrian mountaineer Heinrich Harrer journeys to the Himalayas in 1939 to lead an expedition without his family. But when World War II broke out, the arrogant Harrer fell into Allied forces’ hands as a prisoner of war. He escapes with a fellow detainee and makes his way to Lhasa, Tibet, where he meets the 14-year-old Dalai Lama, whose friendship ultimately transforms his outlook on life.
