Unmistaken Child (DVD)

Featuring stunning photography from one of the most beautiful areas in the world, this documentary depicts Tibetan rituals that have never before been captured on film. Witness an extraordinary individual journey in this touching, revealing look at a Nepalese monk's search for his reincarnated mentor. A flagship title for Hopscotch's new SOUL FOOD label, UNMISTAKEN CHILD has screened at major film festivals internationally and will appeal to fans of films as varied as 10 Questions for the Dalai Lama, What the Bleep Do We Know!? and Kundun.
Unmistaken Child is one of those documentaries in which life and circumstance just seem to fall into place, delivering a thoroughly harmonious, satisfying and beautiful story. In this film, we follow a Tibetan Buddhist monk, Tenzin Zopa, as he searches to find the child who is the reincarnation of his recently deceased spiritual master. High-ranking monks and expert astrologers determine where the ‘unmistaken child’ will likely be found, and Tenzin Zopa sets off on mission. The story is a true life religious quest, a modern odyssey that’s as profoundly meaningful and inherently mysterious as those tales telling of the search for, say, the Holy Grail. In Unmistaken Child, however, we know from the start that the search will be successful, and we can just settle in and observe events and contemplate the Tibetan way of life in remote regions where people live pretty much as they did centuries ago.
