_{A Myanmar (Burmese) new film, “Kyoe Tann,” sponsored by the Network of Myanmar American Association (NetMAA) will be shown at the 2nd Myanmar Film Festival in Los Angeles on September 2009.  The festival is a two-day event; and there will be a screening of Two Myanmar Films based on the Myanmar culture.} 

<sub>The “Kyoe Tann” movie has been shown at the cinemas in Yangon


 
since April 17, 2009 (after Thingyan Festival). This movie is directed by Myanmar famous director Mee Pwar, starring famous actors: Kyaw Hein, Kyaw Ye Aung, and famous actresses: Htun Aeindra Bo, and Soe Myat Thuzar.</sub>

_{The story is based on the families of two poor fishermen who live on the sandbank. These two families fight one another because of their poverty. The movie clearly gives the message that nothing is permanent in our human lives, and hatred, anger, greediness, and selfishness can create enormous bad things to our lives.} 

_{“Kyoe Tann” will be shown at Downtown Independent Theater (http://www.downtownindependent.com/), a state-of-the-art facility located in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles.  It is the chance for everyone to see Myanmar movie on the big screen before its DVD is released to general public.}

<sub>The Annual Myanmar Film Festival (Los Angles) is a fine example of

community-based exhibition.  While the Myanmar (Burmese) American Film Festival, now in its second year, is marked by steady success, although it’s not a player yet in the cinema circuit in South East Asian communities in the United States.  But that's okay.  The intense seems to be sparking local dialogue; and with it, the Festival excels.</sub>

_{The NetMAA is proud to share the rich Myanmar culture through the medium of cinema.  Come to have this experience together and be a part of the fun, glamour, and excitement of a truly Myanmar community event, celebrating the most lucrative, enduring, and most significant cultural art forms: Motion Pictures.}
