About the film:
Armed with video cameras a tenacious band of Burmese reporters face down death to expose the repressive regime controlling their country.
Going beyond the occasional news clip from Burma, the acclaimed filmmaker, Anders Østergaard, brings us close to the video journalists who deliver the footage. Though risking torture and life in jail, courageous young citizens of Burma live the essence of journalism as they insist on keeping up the flow of news from their closed country.
“heart-wrenching” **** - The Guardian
“guerrilla film-making of amazing courage” – The Independent
“painfully poignant” – The Times
We desperately need your help.
Burma Campaign UK is making a difference, but without support from members of the public our work would end.
