Story Synopsis

In Beyond Rangoon, a young American doctor (Patricia Arquette), who is tormented by tragic events in her past involving the violent deaths of her husband and son, travels to the Far East to recuperate and vacation with her sister (Francis McDormand). She becomes stranded in Berma during a clash between the military government and pro-democracy forces, when her passport is stolen. Accompanied by an elderly professor-turned tour-guide (U Aung Ko) she embarks on a dangerous “unofficial tour” during which she learns the true meaning of friendship and courage, and rediscovers in herself a powerful will to live.
