This film recounts the story of a mass legal action: 15 inhabitants of a Burmese jungle village brought mass legal action against a major oil company accusing the firm of violating human rights. The 10-year court battle ended in a nearly unimaginable victory for the villagers. It is also the story of Ka Hsaw Wa, one the leaders of the Burmese democracy movement since 1988. Sought by the police also in Thailand, he hid in the jungle for over 7 years, collecting evidence on thousands of crimes. Burned villages, raped women, tortured men. A silent genocide, supported by the army and financed by the oil producers Total and Unocal.<%YOUTUBE=lwrLv_Yx2-Y%>
