Synopsis

DANCING WITH DICTATORS is a film about Burma from the inside through the journalists that work on The Myanmar Times. Myanmar has been isolated since the military denied Aung San Suu Kyii government in 1990. Coming up is the first election in 20 years and with it the end of 45 years of military rule. Australian Ross Dunkley owns papers in Myanmar and Cambodia and in many ways his hopes of forging a media empire in Asia rest on the outcome of the Burma election.
