This was a stark film about the resilient and beautiful people living in the truly isolated country of Myanmar. It is about astonishing poverty and shows what happens when a government does not care about people. A land rich with resources and willing/capable citizens but no structure, no welfare, almost no hope. Yet somehow the people still work and are quietly patient for the day things will improve. If only we all could be this strong. This film made my heart break.
