Burma VJ: Reporting From a Closed Country

24 May 2011

Director: Anders Ostergaard. Denmark 2008. Cert 12a.

Armed with pocket-sized video cameras, a tenacious band of Burmese reporters face down death to expose the repressive regime controlling their country. Compiled from shaky handheld footage, acclaimed film maker Anders Ostergaard’s Burma VJ pulls us into the heat of the moment as the video-journalists themselves become the target of the Burmese government. The film plays like a thriller, and is all the more frightening because it is real.

Contains violence and disturbing images.

In association with CineCity

Date: 24 - 05 - 2011 (Thursday)
Time: 6.30 pm
Venue: Duke of York’s Picturehouse, Preston Circus Brighton BN1 4NA
