The Burmese topical drama movie “MA – Cry of Silence”, which is able to take part within the Busan Movie Pageant’s New Tendencies major competitors part, has been chosen by Alpha Violet, a French-Japanese gross sales firm.

For 2 months, wages haven’t been paid, and a gaggle of feminine employees led by younger Ning Ning organized to demand wages. Mi-Thet, whose household disappeared throughout a earlier rebellion, reluctantly however finally joins the strike resulting from an emergency.
The movie is the second characteristic directed by The Maw Naing, who made his debut in 2014 with “Monk.” Maw Naing studied filmmaking at Yangon Movie College in 2005 and FAMU in Prague in 2008.
The movie is co-produced by Myanmar, Singapore, France, Norway, South Korea and Qatar, and is produced by Maw Naing (“Zero Level”) and screenwriter Oh Younger Jeong (“Plus One”). Co-producers embody Jeremy Chua (Potocol Singapore), Charlotte Guénin (Massala), Marie Fuglestein Lægreid, Ingrid Lill Høgtun and Linda Bolstad Strønen (DUO Movies) and Jean-Baptiste Bailly-Maitre (Alpha Violet Manufacturing).
Extra credit score goes to cinematographer Tin Win Maing; producer: Aung Min Soe and lead sound editor and sound designer Mathieu Farnarier.
