Watch our new documentary film following some of our staff and crew on our recent project in Myanmar. This short film gives a behind-the-scenes account of what it's like to work on the front lines of the fight against avoidable blindness.
The film tells the story of the Orbis heroes who dedicate their life to help others, and who face a new threat to global blindness.
