The video performance depicts a dreamy society. Here, people share everything. When one hurts, everyone hurts. Despite the hardship and suffering, people fight back, never considering giving up. The revolution lasted more than 60 years in Kachin Land of Myanmar.
Misfortune strikes a community in Kachin. People are hurt. The pain of an individual means that the whole society feels it, everyone sympathizing and encouraging.
Sadness takes over the whole community as misfortune strikes. Life becomes heavy, gradually turning into anger.
After the bad times, a moment of peace and calm starts. A peaceful period, too good to last. Taking the opportunity, the society starts preparing as they know it is the calm before the storm.
War breaks out. We have nothing to fight back with. The community is scattered. People hide in shelters, underground. Many die. After the war everyone rises. Deaths are never forgotten. Dead people walk alongside the living.
Chained and detained, but not for long.
Gradually they rise again to live in the system. Scattered movements indicate the system that all are put into.
Despite constant human rights violations endured by Kachin people, giving up is not an option. It would be an act of betrayal since everyone would be affected. This society is based on an idea of unity. As long as someone in the society is standing, all are together.
