ABOUT

This Kind of Love follows Burmese human rights and LGBT activist, Aung Myo Min, as he returns home after 24 years in exile. Set against Myanmar's historical transition from half a century of brutal military rule, Myo shares his vision for equality for all - from children to transgender people, to ethnic nationalities with his countrymen, to be part of his homeland's emergence from the darkness of dictatorship. 

Myo's story celebrates his belief that community and inclusion are fundamental to creating meaningful political and social change in Burma/Myanmar.

“A cinematic portrait that depicts a life of struggles and shows the whole picture of human rights and LGBT rights in Burma through his eyes. A masterpiece of lyricism. Far away from playing the victim, Myo Min, with his proud and brave attitude is a hero and this film his epic poem. There couldn't be a more beautiful way to open this year's & PROUD Film Festival.” 
— Dodi Fog, Director, & PROUD Yangon LGBT Film Festival
