Midwives

Tuesday, November 14 at 18:00
Graduate Institute, Geneva

Screening of the film Midwives by Hnin Ei Hlaing, in partnership with the Young Activists Summit (YAS) and the Graduate Institute.

Two midwives, one Buddhist and one Muslim, defy strict ethnic divisions and work side by side in a makeshift clinic in western Myanmar to provide medical care to the Rohingya of Rakhine State. For five years, we witness their struggles, hopes and dreams in an environment of ever-increasing chaos and violence.

Free screening of the documentary, followed by a meeting with Rohingya rights activist Maung Sawyeddollah.
