Naraka (which translates as ‘hell’ or ‘a place of torment’) is the harrowing true story of U Gambira’s life from childhood to the present. U Gambira is a former child soldier and Buddhist monk, and the charismatic face behind Burma’s most recent uprising: The Saffron Revolution. Told by his wife, it is also a heartrending tale of struggle in an ‘East meets West’ love story that challenges racial and cultural divides.

In 2007, Burma’s military junta cracked down on thousands of peaceful protesters, turning the streets of Yangon and Burma’s ancient monasteries into scenes of carnage. While Junta leaders faced global condemnation, U Gambira was handed a 68-year sentence for his central role in mobilising the Sangha. In prison he was held in solitary confinement, tortured and starved.

In January 2012, as part of a prisoner amnesty, U Gambira was released. Denied medical attention, without identity papers and with no monastery willing to take him in, for fear of government reprisals, he was forced to disrobe. By then, he was suffering from severe mental health issues, and these were exacerbated by further arbitrary arrests.
