About
Ten Years Myanmar is a post-modern omnibus film featuring five stories set in a futuristic Myanmar. Crafted by five local directors who explore the future of their nation, each narrative tackles the theme of justice, intentionally leaving questions unanswered to encourage audiences to reflect on and engage in meaningful discussions about each story.
Viewers are invited to envision their own roles within a constructive society, as each story traverses form and style, in dealing with topics such as identity, technology, connection, existence and regulation.
