- Marie-Chantal Froidevaux des Chatenets travels by train to her cousin's home in order to spend a winter holiday, when a stranger - apparently a fugitive from somewhere abroad - entrusts her with transporting a jewel in the shape of the head of a blue tiger with ruby eyes over the Swiss border. Unknown to her, this phony jewel contains within it a virus that is powerful enough to destroy all mankind. Doctor Kha is just one of many spies from different nations that are trying to get their hands on either the jewel or Marie-Chantal...it would give any nation tremendous control over all of the others.

- Filmed in Morocco and featuring exclusive interviews with cultural icons such as Allen Ginsberg, PAUL BOWLES: THE COMPLETE OUTSIDER explores the esoteric life of the man who wrote the The Sheltering Sky, one of the most provocative and influential novels of the 20th century. As an icon to the Beat Generation, Bowles' writing and life has influenced everyone from William Burroughs (whose Naked Lunch was inspired by Bowles), to David Cronenberg's film of the same name, to Bernardo Bertolucci, whose film adaptation of The Sheltering Sky was a critical and popular hit. Bowles led an enigmatic existence on the outskirts of accepted moral behavior in harsh but beautiful Morocco. Despite being married (to fellow author Jane Bowles), Bowles and his wife had numerous homosexual affairs. The film explores not only his development as a writer and composer, but also his complicated personal life.
