Burma VJ

Burma Vj is a documentary film by Danish director Anders Østergaard about the Burmese reporters who risked their lives covering the Saffron revolution in Burma in September 2007. Østergaard assembled the film almost entirely from handheld footage shot during the protests. A journalist, using the pseudonym Joshua and with the Democratic Voice of Burma, who shot some of the film relates the story over the footage. Østergaard and Joshua talk about the film at Independent Film Talk,

The film opens in New York City in May, 2009.
