Cutting through an overload of information to get to the heart of the story.
This is The Point.
The Cannes Film Festival doing the work of the CIA?
It's no secret that the CIA spent decades financing the Tibet separatist movement and possibly is still doing so to keep it from dying.
But why are world-renowned film festivals such as Cannes joining in the futile effort?
That seems to be the case
as it's set to screen two Tibet-related films peddling separatism under the guise of spirituality and ethics.
In French, I will shout out, fake gaffe, which means watch out.
Are these films what they claim to be?
Who are the people behind these productions?
How many of them, at their artistic orgy of arrogance and ignorance,
actually been to Tibet or Shenzhen?
What do those who live there today say about their lives,
whose people who can find no voice in the star-studded halls and alleyways of the French Riviera?
