A pieced together documentary of video footage taken during the September 2007 protests against the military regime in Burma. VJ stands for video journalist. Those who recorded what was happening on film, at great personal risk. Quite compelling despite a lot of shaky camerawork. Completely understandable considering they were being hunted by the secret police. If you are like me, and prefer to get your news from the source, rather than in over-produced blurbs from cable networks, this is an excellent piece of world history to see.Rating: C+
