The Go Between

Synopsis

Soft-spoken but strong-minded Daw Chin Chin is a mediator between the Chin National Front and the Myanmar government. As she navigates a determinedly conciliatory path between nationwide conference and village hall, soldiers and civilians, men and women, we begin to understand the vital role that women can play in the country’s fragile peace process.
