The film follows the lives of eight Burmese orphans as they struggle to survive the aftermath of Cyclone Nargis. The film also exposes the official intransigence of one of the world's most brutal and secretive regimes. With unparalleled access inside the country from just after the cyclone struck, Orphans of Burma's Cyclone was shot covertly over the course of a year by two Burmese cameramen who risked an instant 30-year prison sentence if caught making the film. Orphans of Burma's Cyclone reveals what day to day life is like for the ordinary people of Burma.
