EVENT NOTICE: Filmmaking in Myanmar: Past, Present, Future

Location: Goldsmiths, University of London @goldsmithsuol

I’d love you to join me for an event in London that means an awful lot to me.

Over the last year, I’ve had the pleasure of working with and mentoring a group of talented young filmmakers in Myanmar, who are working in extremely difficult conditions, as part of the British Council “Connections through Culture” programme. 

On the night, we’ll be screening three short films from the programme, giving an insight into a fascinating country that I called home for many years, and where I too learnt to be a filmmaker. 

I’ll be joined by fellow filmmakers from inside and outside Myanmar who’ve been working in and on the country for years. It promises to be a very interesting evening, hope you can join.)

(What’s going on this video? This was one of the last shoots I did in Myanmar before Covid and the coup. We rented a private boat to go hunting for sea nomads, it took us seven days and about the same number of bottles of whiskey to find them… no phone signal, just incredible views and incredible friends. It was one of the happiest weeks of my life! 

We were making a travel series for Canal+, the first show to travel from the very top to the very bottom of the country. The entire crew and my cohost @geosithu - apart from myself and @leopoldbelanger - were from Myanmar, and I learned so much on that project. It was an absolute highlight of an incredible few years in Myanmar learning to make films. It breaks my heart that moments like this can’t be enjoyed by filmmakers and Myanmar today.)
Merry Christmas to all our new followers! 

Since the show went out on @free.documentary, our audience has DOUBLED, it’s incredible. We’re so grateful to everyone who has decided to join the journey. 

Wherever you are in the world, we’re wishing you a wonderful festive season, and if you’re wondering what to get that Land Rover lover in your life then why not buy the book behind the series?

It’s still riding high on the best sellers list on Amazon, go find out what all the fuss is about!
