Documentary film: Burma VJ

Following The Lady Charity Gala Premiere, we will have a documentary film show on "Burma VJ".



Going beyond the occasional news clip from Burma, the acclaimed filmmaker, Anders Ostergaard, brings us close to Burma s video journalists who insist on keeping up the flow of news from their closed country despite risking torture and life in jail. 'Joshua', age 27, is one of the young video journalists. With Joshua as the psychological lens, the Burmese condition is made tangible to a global audience so we can understand it, feel it, and smell it.  Burma VJ, winner of over 40 international awards.
