Blossoms from Ash
Blossoms from Ash is a stunning visual and narrative exploration of life in the world’s largest refugee camp. The film is a portrait of lives discarded for profit, enabled by hatred and religious persecution. It features historical accounts, an educational look at the origins of the past and current conflict, and eyewitness testimony from the refugee survivors of the Rohingya Genocide in Myanmar.
“The purpose of Blossoms from Ash is to make the world aware of the Rohingya, the trials they have been through in their rightful homeland, and the challenges they face today. This film seeks to move audiences around the world to raise their collective voice about the crimes perpetrated by the government of Myanmar, and to pressure the governments protecting Myanmar from international action. Further, this documentary seeks to advance the efforts of the NGOs helping the Rohingya people, primarily by raising funds for improvements to the educational facilities serving the refugee children.” – Alex Blum, Producer
