WorldMyanmar: The Architecture of Statelessness

The Rohingya have endured decades of discrimination and forced displacement, while a genocide case against Myanmar is before the International Court of Justice. The film examines how military regimes changed citizenship laws to exclude Rohingya from official registers, controlled their movement and normalised their erasure. It focuses on the 2016–2017 clearance operations, including village burnings, mass killings and the flight of hundreds of thousands to Bangladesh, as well as Myanmar’s legal defence.
