Beyond Rangoon
Beyond Rangoon is a 1995 drama film by John Boorman about Laura Bowman (played by Patricia Arquette), an American tourist who vacations in Burma in 1988, the year in which the 8888 Uprising takes place. The film was mostly filmed in Malaysia, and is based on a true story. The city scenes are an accurate depiction of what the Military Junta's response to any organised demonstrations may be.
The rural scenes portray the Burma Army's curruption and brutality with which the government rules those of Burman ethnicity.
However, the film barely touches on the cruelty, starvation, torture, rape, slavery, hardship, and murder which the Burma Army inflicts on the Non-Burman ethnicities. It does show how far the Karen people will go to help others even though they often have nothing themselves.

Overall the movie scores big on attempting to wake up the World to the suffering of the Burmese population which the media has ignored and allowed to fester for decades.
