New York, May 8, 2009--Three monks, leaders of the Saffron Revolution and now refugees in the US, openly discuss their participation in the 2007 uprising against the Burmese military junta portrayed in Anders Ostergaard's award-winning film BURMA VJ.
The monks belong to the All Burma Monks' Alliance, (ABMA) Utica, NY, whose goal is to support the many monks currently being held as political prisoners in Burmese jails, refugee monks who have escaped incarceration and torture, and to promote human rights and democracy in Burma.
The film , BURMA VJ, will be released in UK cinemas on July 17th with special preview screenings taking place across the country on July 14th.
