WorldHow decades of persecution displaced Myanmar’s Rohingya

Myanmar’s Rohingya have endured decades of discrimination and forced displacement, while a case alleging genocide is before the International Court of Justice. The film examines how military governments changed citizenship laws to exclude Rohingya from official registers and used identity papers, checkpoints and travel permits to restrict movement. It also traces how segregation, incitement and repeated violence normalised their erasure from society.
