Variously tough and poetic... Lieberman possesses a warm and genuine curiousity.” Los Angeles Times “They Call It Myanmar” is a thing of beauty... its cinematography, music and contemplative words make it... a hymn to a land that has grown out of the oldest cultures in Asia.

A notable and often heartbreaking documentary.” -The Hollywood Reporter “Quietly startling moments... They Call It Myanmar is a solid and subtly moving portrait of the people of Burma by filmmaker Robert H. Lieberman... The level of fear is palpable.

Lieberman's exceptional, truthful and exciting documentary . . . a documentary with all the virtues of a great feature film. . . . He has succeeded brilliantly.” - San Francisco Examiner
