Brave New Burma

Brave New Burma is an intimate portrait in words and pictures of a country finally emerging from decades of dictatorship, isolation, and fear. Nic Dunlop documents the plight of the people of Burma, from the front lines of the ongoing civil war to deceptively tranquil cities firmly under military control, a secretive and brutal world.

In 1999, he received an award from the John Hopkins University for Excellence in International Journalism for his discovery and exposure of Pol Pots chief executioner Comrade Duch, a story told in his book, The Lost Executioner.

Co-directed Burma Soldier, an HBO film which was awarded the Grand Jury Prize at the United Nations Association Film Festival and nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Writing.
