"HUNTED LIKE ANIMALS" History of Hmong Lao-Vietnam War

© SommerFilms, 2007 (by Rebecca Sommer) All rights reserved. http://www.rebeccasommer.org
Brief history (Vietnam War) of the ethnic Hmong Lao people of Laos, narrated by Hmong leader General Vang Pao, and Mr. Vang from the LHRC. In the 75 minute-long awareness-raising documentary "Hunted Like Animals", the refugees who fled from Laos to Thailand explain what the military inside of Laos did to them, while they were running and hiding, half starved, from the attacks by the soldiers ~ over 30 years after the Vietnam War ended. Some footage in "Hunted Like Animals" was filmed by the Hmong-in-hiding themselves- in the mountainous conflict areas of Laos (2002-2006). (Cameras were smuggled in, and tapes out of the conflict area by Fact Finding Commission.)

Thousands of Hmong Lao fled from Laos to Thailand - starting 2004- to escape increasing military attacks inside of Laos, and settled in Thailand's Ban Huay Nam Khao Refugee Camp.
Over 1400 DVD of HUNTED LIKE ANIMALS were disseminated to governments, UN system and NGOs end of 2006 and 2007. Even so diplomats and UN officials has no access to the people-in-hiding inside of Laos, or to the refugees in Thailand's refugee camp - HUNTED LIKE ANIMALS brings the voices of the desperate Hmong Lao directly to them. The refugees want the world to know what they have endured, and speak on behalf of many thousands of Hmong left behind -- who are still trapped inside of remote mountainous jungle areas, chased, attacked, tortured, mutilated, killed, starving -- AT THIS VERY MOMENT !!!!!
