YANGON, Oct. 27 (Xinhua) -- Film directors of Myanmar and China will cooperate in shooting an educative film featuring a story of human trafficking across border, sources with the Myanmar Motion Picture Enterprise (MMPE) said on Tuesday.

    The film, "The Road to Hell", is based on a story in which the mother rescued her son and daughter from human traffickers to whom they were sold by her second husband.

    Their roles will be played by Myanmar and Chinese actors and actresses, the sources said, adding that the movie will be shot in the border areas of the two countries as well as Thailand.

    Myanmar is making efforts to promote the standard of the country's video features and movie production for penetrating foreign markets in cooperation with foreign countries and through attending foreign film festivals.

    Earlier this month, a Myanmar film delegation comprising director, actors and actresses took part in the 18th China Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival held in Nanchang, Jiangxi province, in which two Myanmar movies -- "Piece of String" and "Myaw Lint Chin Myar Swar" (Much Expectation) were screened.

    In 2007, Myanmar also took part in another Chinese film festival in Suzhou with the film "Hexagon ".

    For the development of TV and movie sector, Myanmar sent delegations in the past few years to international radio, movie and TV shows, Beijing Film Festival and 16th Chinese Golden Rooster Film Festival as well as to China, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and Singapore to learn the digital camera technology and to India to study the TV broadcasting.
