In order to control the influence of the second wave of covid-19, Yangon, began to restrict urban traffic and public access. Nang Mhwe Ngin Seng, a filmmaker from Shan state, focuses on life with her roommates (three girls from Shan state) during the covid shutdown in Yangon. Their lives are affected to greater and lesser extents by the epidemic. In this self-portraiture documentary, Nang Mhwe Ngin Seng reexamines the life dilemmas faced by her and her mother as two generations of women from Shan state, and finally she finds the glimmer of love in the dark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Monkhood\u00a0 (about 15 min)<\/strong> by Nontawat Numbenchapol<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"574\" src=\"https:\/\/www.burmaconference.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/157394647_899946587407161_4917358533574572533_n-1024x574.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-709\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.burmaconference.com\/ICBMS3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/157394647_899946587407161_4917358533574572533_n-1024x574.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.burmaconference.com\/ICBMS3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/157394647_899946587407161_4917358533574572533_n-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.burmaconference.com\/ICBMS3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/157394647_899946587407161_4917358533574572533_n-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.burmaconference.com\/ICBMS3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/157394647_899946587407161_4917358533574572533_n.jpg 1428w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This documentary is about a young monk from Shan state who has been living in Thailand for seven years.

He started his research about Lisu people\u2019s traditional livelihoods and has turned that research into a documentary called Mountain Farm. Lisu people\u2019s mountain farms have managed to hold on well into our globalized era. But today\u2019s Lisu farmers face difficulties obtaining new land and making a stable income from mountain farming and struggle to make a living. Zaw Lar thinks that mountain farming will disappear as soon as in the next few years. He has made this film as a document of Lisu people\u2019s traditional mountain farming culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The film program will be screened on Friday, 5 March from 16.15 to 17.20 and again on Sunday, 7 March from 9.00 to 10.30, including a zoom director&#8217;s discussion with Nang Mhwe Ngin Seng (Jupiter) and Nontawat Numbenchapol. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The film screening and talk is FREE and open to the public!
