Mapping the roots and trajectories of Madheshi filmmaking

Rajbiraj-based filmmaker Suresh Mukhiya discusses the inspirations, possibilities and limitations of Madhesh-based documentary filmmaking.

I recently had the opportunity to watch Suresh Mukhiya’s ‘The Killing Kiln’, a short documentary about the lives of workers in the brick kilns of Madhesh. The story captures how these workers risk their lives to earn a living.
