This month, we’re screening Behind the Screen, directed by Aung Nwai Htway, in which the director dissects the dissolution of his parent's marriage (both parents were film icons in 1960s Myanmar). He finds that the scenes acted out on-screen often mirrored their real lives - finding a new understanding of his own personal history along the way. 

The documentary is available to stream from 2 December (Monday) to 9 December (Monday)
