Myanmar: The Spring Revolution
More than 750 people have been killed since Myanmar's military coup. Protests demanding democracy have been met with brutal force. We follow activists in a fight for their future.
More than 750 people have been killed by the Myanmar military since they seized power in a coup three months ago. Mass protests demanding a return to democracy and the release of elected leader Aung San Suu Kyi have been met with brutal force. Borders are closed and the internet effectively blocked. This is a story the military does not want the world to hear. But people are bravely documenting their resistance. We follow three young activists now in a fight for their future. As their options close, can they win back democracy?
