My actors hadn’t seen a camera before

The actors in the film are very new to films. Most of them had not watched a movie in their life. The children hadn’t even seen a digital camera. There were workshops organised for the actors, young and old for six months, during which time, they were given pointers on how to be in front of the camera. Few Nepali films have gained the attention and appreciation that his debut film is garnering. The Black Hen is featured in the Competition Films section at IFFK. Set against the breath-taking valleys and mountains of Nepal, the film is a social drama during the time of the Maoist insurgency in Nepal.We spoke the authentic Nepali language in the film. Except for another technician and I, none of the people on the set spoke the language (referring to the numerous pidgin and creole languages that are prevalent in Nepal). So, it was a difficult task making everyone speak the language correctly. - See more at: http://www.kantipur-video.com/videos/my-actors-hadnt-seen-a-camera-before/#sthash.Ro7itwhb.dpuf

Some say he’s half man half fish, others say he’s more of a seventy/thirty split. Either way he’s a fishy bastard.
