Myanmar's 'Midwives' Documentary Explores Ethnic Strife

Myanmar's 'Midwives' Documentary Explores Ethnic Strife

Imagine a movie about two women in a place called Myanmar, where people don't always get along.

One woman is Buddhist and the other is Rohingya, a group that is often treated unfairly.

The movie shows how these two women work together as midwives, helping pregnant women have their babies.

They face challenges because of the different groups, but they still care for each other and the people around them.

The film shows the difficulties the Rohingya face and how even a military takeover affects people.

It hopes that people can learn to understand each other, like the midwives.
