Screening of “Thabyay”: Creative Resistance In Myanmar
8 October, 2025 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
Event Background
SEA Junction will be screening a new documentary “Thabyay”: Creative Resistance In Myanmar, directed by Jeanne Hallacy. This screening sheds light on Myanmar’s ongoing people-power revolution through the stories of four leaders navigating the difficult choices between armed resistance and the path of non-violence. The film captures their struggles, hopes, and the powerful role of art, music, and poetry as tools of “artivism” in the fight for a peaceful, democratic, and inclusive future for all people in Myanmar. Questioning happens when non-violent leaders are pushed to support armed struggle against a brutal regime in a forgotten war?
Following the screening, there will be a discussion with:
- Jeanne Hallacy, Director
- Thet Swe Win, Artivist
The event will take place at SEA Junction, 4th Floor, Bangkok Art and Culture Centre (BACC). All interested participants are welcome to join in on the screening and discussion. Be a part of the conversation on the relationship between activism and arts.
The event is free; donation is encouraged to help support future activities of SEA Junction.
