This documentary, shot clandestinely over a 2-year period, examines life in Myanmar.  It traces the history of the country from a British colony to independent nation with an elected leader to the modern military regime of the country.  The film brings to light the rich cultural and religious heritage of the country, but also exposes the poverty and difficulty of daily life under extreme censorship.  The DVD may be purchased from the film’s website or Amazon, or it can be streamed through Netflix.
