Born Warriors Deluxe Edition 4DVD SET

The Born Warriors trilogy is the outcome of a ground-breaking personal journey to film the ancient martial sport of Lethwei, which has endured in Myanmar despite decades of bloodshed and government control. This ten-year documentary series follows the fighters, trainers, and promoters of the unique, indigenous bare-knuckle fighting sport as they survive the harsh control of a brutal military dictatorship and into the early years of a promising period of democratic reform that has fostered the sport’s rebirth. Born Warriors is a one-of-a-kind tribute that offers extraordinary access to a country and sport that are rarely explored or seen outside of Myanmar. WARRIORS BORN

The First Disc

We are taken into the world of bare-knuckle fighting, which has mostly survived in rural villages, in this first documentary, shot before Myanmar’s era of democratic reform; we witness the unbridled sacrifice and passion of a small group of promoters, fighters, and trainers who attempt to keep the sport alive in the major cities despite an obvious lack of means and support.

REDUX OF BORN WARRIORS

Born Warriors (Disc 2) Redux returns to the traditional Burmese sport of Lethwei, as its practitioners face an uncommon set of problems as Myanmar opens up to the outside world.
Lethwei is an ancient bare-knuckle fighting sport that functioned as a rite of passage into manhood and trained men for war. Today, the sport represents power and physical skill for the people of Myanmar, who have been beaten down and robbed of their pride and dignity for decades by a ruthless military government. This amazing first-person description of Lethwei was shot in numerous locations around Myanmar. Additional Resources: V2 of Training and Training Methods
