Sylvia, born into a high-ranking German military family during WWII, discovers at a young age the truth about the Holocaust. She is shocked by this awful revelation and by her parents silence when faced with her questioning. As a result, Sylvia vows to leave Germany and never to return. Several years later she happens upon a newspaper story on the persecution of the Tibetans by the hand of the Chinese military. Sylvia connects the Tibetan struggle with the plight of the Jews in WWII, and she makes a second vow to dedicate her life to helping the Dalai Lama achieve Tibet�s independence.

As an adult, Sylvia embarks on a spiritual journey leading her through India and ultimately to Tibet where she finds a new family within the Tibetan community. She fulfills her vow to the Dalai Lama, helping to build a hostel and monastery in the Himalayas to give shelter to the fleeing Tibetans.  Narrated by Bill Cosby, this program is an intricate portrayal of a people and its history and Sylvia�s Path.  Executive Producer: Camille O. Cosby.
