This is the story of Aung San Suu Kyi.

Mother to two sons, fate and history conspired to bring her to the forefront of Myanmar's push for democratic freedom, the world rushing to build her up as an icon of democracy.

But an impossible political choice saw her international allies desert her and the world turn away as Myanmar sunk back into military rule.

In this Independent TV documentary, Geordie Greig explores whether Aung San Suu Kyi was cancelled by those who once lauded her and decorated her with awards including the Nobel Peace Prize.
