Synopsis

A group of male workers at a batik dying factory: their dreams of winning the lottery are as vibrant as the colourful patterns they create on the printing screens.

Director's Biography

After completing a Masters degree in gender and development studies in Bangkok, she returned to Myanmar where she worked for a number of development organisations including Oxfam and the Myanmar Baptist Convention before resuming her film training at YFS in 2009. Eh Mwee's 2005 portrait of a waitress at a Yangon restaurant, A Day with Aye Nan Lin, was one of the first YFS films to be broadcast on MRTV. Respectful Encounters, which she also edited, was her first NGO-commissioned work.
