A Tibetan refugee dies far from home. His last wish, to set foot on his native soil again, is unfulfilled. Years later his son, A New York artist, embarks on a remarkable journey. He means to car twenty-thousand kilograms of Tibetan soil out of the country, and the Chinese authorities won't make it easy. Part art and part act of remembrance, Tenzing Rigdol's soil project is a powerfully touching attempt to reunite exiled Tibetans with their homeland.
