Original Title: Burma VJ: Reporter i et lukket land
Director: Anders Østergaard
Writers: Jan Krogsgaard, Anders Østergaard

Østergaard’s nerve-shatteringly visceral documentary, composed mainly of footage shot by the guerrilla video journalists of the DVB (Democratic Voice of Burma, an illegal television station transmitted from Oslo, Norway,) excellently captures the tragically quashed monk-led uprising of late September 2007.
