ABOUT THE FILM
Burma Soldier” is the powerful story of a former junta member and Burmese soldier who risks everything to become a pro-democracy activist. The film provides a rare glimpse of a brutal dictatorship seen through the eyes of a courageous former soldier who, quite literally, swapped sides. The documentary offers an exclusive and rare perspective, from inside the heart and mind of a man who lays bare an understanding of a brutal regime and the political and psychological power of the junta over his country. He reaches out to the military asking them to examine their responsibilities as soldiers and to reflect on their duty to protect the people that make up the nation they are sworn to serve

International human rights activists and Burmese exile pro-democracy activists in London, led by Burma Liberation Front, on 04.05.2010 in front of Burmese military regime embassy, successfully made the fourth of their four demonstrations planned as a protest against the unfair election laws recently passed by the military regime in Burma in preparation for their fake election in the later part of 2010.
