As Los Angeles filmmaker Dylan Chow and his film crew of 30 worked in the mine-riddled jungles of the Thailand-Burma border in 102-degree heat this past April, occasional gunfire could be heard in the distance as forces of Burma’s military dictatorship fought rebel groups.

“I went there to make a film and be a witness for my people who are trapped and suffering right now,” Chow told The Epoch Times. “You see so much suffering, but no one including reporters are telling this story, so I knew last year that it was time to get this film going.”
