Synopsis: In the end of 2012, when the Burmese army waged a war on Kachin Independence Army (KIA), many corporations contracted to work with the government on jade mining in the area were forced to stop their operation. The jade mines stretching up to hundreds of kilometers had become a war zone. Workers from all over the country flocked to the jade mines in the Kachin State to dig illegally for jade. They risked being arrested by the soldiers and being buried alive by rocks. All they wanted is to find a piece of beautiful jade that will lead them to comfortable lives.
