A CDM doctor, unable to return home, unexpectedly finds his closest companion in a cat during the military coup. Together, they live in a liberated area, where he continues to treat patients while dreaming of the road back home. This documentary focuses on love amid conflict and takes a subtle approach to real lives in conflict areas of Myanmar.
As a student in the late 1980s, Tin Tun Hlaing joined the struggle against the then military dictatorship. He was arrested and spent ten years in prison. Now middle-aged, he is still haunted by his incarceration. A sensitive portrait of a troubled man who uses his own brand of ‘action poetry’ to cope with the deep scars his youthful political activism has left – scars which still affect him and his family to this day.
