Tenzin Pema is a professional MMA boxer, representing Tibet on the Indian national team. She fights not only to win in the ring but also for her beloved country, which she has never seen. Overcoming inner and outer struggles, she balances the opposing worlds of fighting and the non-violent Tibetan Buddhist mindset.
