French theorist of cinema, Jacques Aumont, argues that “the impression of reality” results from the image and sound, the perception of a continuous movement and the coherence among diegetic universe constructed by the fiction. Jacques Aumont, Aesthetics of Film, translated by Richard Neupert, University of Texas Press, 1992, pp.121-125.Mr Harrer is an Austrian mountain climber who twice escaped from a prisoner-of-war camp in north India, and in record time, after a most audacious and stern journey with a companion fugitive, reached Lhasa. His book is admirably written and excellently translated. It combines exciting narrative with a great deal of information about Tibet as it was just before communism. The picture of the nomad lands fits very well with that given by the American missionary Dr Ekvall in what is probably the most notable book on Tibet in recent years; and the picture of Lhasa is the most vivid which anybody has yet given. Aufschnaiter and Harrer escaped and were re-captured a number of times before finally succeeding. On 29 April 1944, Harrer and six others, including Rolf Magener and Heins von Have (disguised as British officers), Aufschnaiter, the Salzburger Bruno Treipel (aka Treipl) and the Berliners Hans Kopp and Sattler (disguised as native Indian workers), walked out of the camp. Magener and von Have took the train to Calcutta and from there found their way to the Japanese army in Burma. [7] [8]
