This Kind of Love follows Burmese activist Aung Myo Min as he returns home after twenty-four years in exile and works to help rebuild Burma’s civil society after decades of brutal dictatorship.
Through Myo’s eyes, the film embraces the idea that community and inclusion are fundamental to creating meaningful political and social change in Burma.
Myo’s vision that human rights is for everyone—from children to transgender people to ethnic minorities—makes This Kind of Love an offering of hope for the future.
The movie will be followed by a discussion on the situation of human rights in Burma.
