Ani Bond: Choying

Synopsis
Choying Drolma, a child of forced marriage and a victim of domestic violence, seeks refuge in a Tibetan Buddhist monastery where she learns to sing. An American musician brings her music to the United States of America, from where she starts her global music journey. However, some believe nuns should not sing, and her concert is boycotted in Hong Kong. Despite such criticism, Choying Drolma becomes a rock-star nun, fighting for girls’ education with her heavenly voice on the world stage. She founded a modern school for girls, built a hospital in Kathmandu, addressed gender equality in the United Nations, called for educational reform in Abu Dhabi, appealed for world peace in Europe, and became a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador. However, a dark cloud remains in her heart since she cannot free herself emotionally from the past. She decides to fulfill her late father’s last wish and retrace her roots in his Tibetan hometown in Qinghai, China.
