Burma's Secret Jungle War with Joe Simpson

Joe Simpson, the climber who famously cheated death in the Andes (a story told in Touching the Void) retraces the jungle trek of his father, a 'Chindit' who fought behind Japanese lines in Burma in 1944. Accompanied by explorer, Ed Stafford, Joe connects with his father's experience, and also comes face to face with a war in modern-day Myanmar. (Sheffield Doc/Fest)
