Docu Athan Square is a small creative hub in Mae Sot, a town on the Thai–Myanmar border. It serves as a space for journalists, filmmakers, and artists — many of whom have been forced to flee their home country. Our aim is to provide a safe environment where creators can learn, produce, and build the foundation needed to share their work with the world.
