"Tibet in 49 Seconds" is an OPEN CALL for Tibet-inspired videos of 49 seconds in length, not including titles. March 10th of 2008 marked the 49th anniversary of the Chinese communist occupation of Tibet. Also, in Tibetan Buddhism there are 49 days in which the mind traverses a 'state between' (bar-do) death and rebirth.  For more information, please visit The Tibet Connection YouTube Page.
