Altered Focus: Myanmar road trip
The purpose of this video was supposed to be to portray Myanmar in a different light from the usual perspective of human rights violations and conflict. The filmmakers spend so much time talking about the negative aspects and whining about being lonely in a foreign land that they kind of fail in that aspect. Also it ‘s like they’ve got a bit of a Messiah complex, but that’s not quite it. Maybe a bit of a colonial mindset…. Whatever… thes guys are young, their hearts are in the right place and it’s shot well. At least they are thinking. Just turn down the voiceover. Fair Warning: There’s not really a lot of skating in this video.

That was great, wish there was a National Geographic of skateboarding. Injecting some culture into my passions is a good thing.
I hope this video lets U.S. skaters realize how good they have got it. It also shows that skateboarding is truely an international language.
Love it.
yo I think I’ve seen you guys around skating in Thailand before…
