No star cast, no cost—just an iPhone

These emerging filmmakers overcame financial constraints by shooting their film ‘A Place Under the Sun’ entirely on an iPhone 14 Pro Max.

Jason Lopchan is the director of ‘A Place Under the Sun’, the first feature film in Nepal to be shot entirely on an iPhone 14 Pro Max. Many assumed they chose to shoot on an iPhone as a gimmick to grab attention. “But that’s far from the truth,” Lopchan says. “If we had the budget, we would have never used a phone to shoot the film.”
