Works by Eunt Maw Oo
Resilience CDM
The former government workers who joined CDM and protested against the coup fled to the border areas. More than two years after the military coup, it became critical for people CDM to find job opportunities to make their living. Mother's Arm is an organisation that promotes the acquisition of vocational skills for these people. The film presented the handicraft-making work of the CDMs working in Mothers' Arm.
A Pair of Hand
'New Myanmar Education' is a school for children who have no access to education due to the military coup. Teachers provide online classes for over 3,000 secondary and high school students. The young teacher who founded the school, Thet Htar Maung Maung Nyein was one of the participants in the revolution to gain the freedom. The film tells the story of one teacher's fight for the children of the future.
A Young Man Who Never Gives Up
Linn Maung is a young guy, who joined the peaceful protests soon after the military coup. Due to the horrendous crimes that junta forces committed against the peaceful protesters, he had to run into the jungle to hold the gun and to fight back. After the military jets dropped the bombs on the training camp, he had to run again. He, this time, realized that it is crucial and essential to have guns to win the fights with the junta forces on the front line. He decided to raise funds by selling his art to provide the necessary support to his comrades.
