Free/open annotatable documentary about Burmese dictatorship

Brett sez, “French producers snuck into Burma and made an undercover documentary, “Happy World: Burma, the dictatorship of the absurd,” about the bizarre regime. Awesome access, and the web documentary uses Popcorn.js to provide contextual links. Open Creative Commons licensing allows anyone to share, download and embed the experience. Interesting that it was also produced not with broadcasters but with a newspaper.

Very cool ‘censurator’ animates your twitter feed with brownshirts from the dictatorship.”
