Synopsis

Burma VJ: Reporting from a Closed Country

Synopsis:

Burma VJ: Reporting from a Closed Country is a documentary film that follows a group of underground video journalists in Burma as they document the 2007 uprising against the military regime. The film provides a rare glimpse into the closed country of Burma, where independent media is banned and censorship is rampant.

The video journalists, known as VJs, risk their lives to capture footage of the protests and the brutal crackdown by the military. Using hidden cameras and cell phones, they smuggle their footage out of the country to be broadcast on international news networks.

Burma VJ: Reporting from a Closed Country sheds light on the power of citizen journalism and the importance of bearing witness to human rights abuses. It serves as a reminder of the bravery and resilience of those who fight for freedom and democracy in the face of oppression.
