Burma is at an historic moment of change as it pushes ahead with reforms. One woman has come to symbolise the struggle of Burma's people to be free - Aung San Suu Kyi. She has withstood almost 20 years of house arrest to become an international icon of peaceful resistance and hope in the face of oppression. Built around an extended interview with the Nobel Prize-winner, this program explores the personal sacrifices Suu Kyi has had to make, and captures the moment when she takes the huge, risky step into everyday politics in Burma.
