In the summer of 2006, four friends from San Diego, set out on a mission to expose the atrocities being done to the people of Burma, specifically, the Karen people. One of the countries largest ethnic groups. Burma is a closed country known for strong penalties including imprisonment for people found inside its borders without the proper documentation. However, they knew that in order to capture the story they needed, they would need to sneak across the border. With backpacks filled with borrowed film equipment they set out without a clue of how they would break inside a countryside filled with landmines and Burmese soldiers. They didn t know what they would find, or if anyone would listen to their story when they returned.
