Guna’s last two films, Light of the Valley and Prayers of the Ancient Ones, were both aired on PBS stations across the country and were screened at select theatrical venues and prestigious museums in the US and Europe. We have just completed our third film, The Great Transmission, a feature-length documentary film about the survival of Tibetan Buddhist texts, which is garnering awards from film festivals across the nation.
