Wai Mar Nyunt graduated in fine art from Yangon University in 1998, and has since created a number of installations and video art pieces. She attended YFS from 2007 to 2009 where she directed the delightful short documentary Happy Days. Wai Mar has since created two YFS-produced films for development organisations: My Positive Life about FXB Myanmar’s psycho-social support group for people living with HIV, and Sun Behind the Clouds (2008) about World Concern-trained health workers in Kachin State. In 2009, she received a scholarship to attend the Czech School of Performing Arts, FAMU, in Prague where she co-created an experimental film with a Finnish filmmaker, Dragon Beach, as well as making her graduation film about the 2010 elections in Myanmar, Unfinished Painting. She shared her directing skills with her peers during the YFS train-to-teach programme from 2012 to 2016, and subsequently taught at filmmaking workshops held by the independent production company DONE at several sites in Myanmar including Loikaw in Kayah State.
