Manipur film unveils Myanmar 'hell hole'
The Telegraph | Khelen Thokchom | Imphal, Oct. 24:
Ningthoukhongjam Bobo, a youth from Imphal who had spent more than four years of his prime in a Myanmarese jail, returned home after serving his term to the "shock and horror" of his family as it had already taken him to be dead and performed his last rites. A Manipuri feature film, Keishal jail-dugi fadoksing (Prisoners of Keishal jail), inspired by Bobo's near-death experience, will tell the audience how horrifying Myanmarese jails (which Bobo describes as "hell hole") are and also highlight its gross human rights violations.
The story of the film is written by well-known singer Tapta and directed by Satyajit B.K. The film is a Plus Media production. The dialogues in the film are mostly in Burmese. Bobo had learnt the language during his time in the lock-up and the jail. His knowledge of the language helped the other actors.
