Breaking the News (2011) Online

Eleven years since the East Timorese successfully voted for independence from Indonesia, Breaking the News gets behind the scenes of news and current affairs reportage to challenge those who think a free press automatically comes with independence. What happens to the local journalists when the foreign reporters return safely home after covering each crisis, their stories in the can? Jose Belo and Rosa Garcia are two local journalists enmeshed in the political turmoil of their country, who regularly put themselves and their families at risk by reporting ongoing corruption and injustice.
