Burma VJ (Norway/Sweden/Denmark/UK | 2008 | 84' | DigiBeta | Color | English | with Arabic subtitles) Director: Anders Hoegsbro Oestergaard Producer: Lise Lense Moeller Cinematography: Simon Plum, Burmese undercover video journalists Editor: Janus Billeskov Jansen, Thomas Papapetros

Armed with small handy cams, undercover Video Journalists in Burma keep up the flow of news from their closed country despite risking torture and life in jail. Their material is smuggled out of Burma and broadcast back via satellite. Joshua, age 27, becomes tactical leader of a group of reporters, as Buddhist monks in September 2007 led a massive uprising. Foreign TV crews are banned from the country, so it's left to Joshua and his crew to keep the revolution alive on TV screens all over. As government intelligence understands the power of the camera, the VJs become their prime target.

Anders Hoegsbro Oestergaard Born in Copenhagen, Denmark, 1965. This filmmaker has won the Bodil award for best documentary film twice for his films "Tin Tin & I" & "Gasoline" and was nominated for many documentary film awards along his career.
