The journey of independent East Timor through the eyes of a remarkable and resilient woman. Following the acclaimed documentary East Timor – Birth of a Nation, Rosa's Journey picks up the story of young East Timorese widow Rosa Martins and her family seven years after independence. Unlike the celebratory climate of 2000, life in East Timor is violent and democracy fragile as one of the world's youngest nations faces an uncertain future.
