The
films shown here are a small sample of the many we have taken. Most
are of people in the village of Thak in Kaski, and centre on the family
with whom we lived on visits over a number of years. We have given diary
extracts which explain the background to the films and when they were
taken, and also the video log.
The
Gurung project within which the films were made is briefly described
Accounts on how the filming was done:
'Advice
on fieldwork filming in the Himalayas'
'Changes
in film technologies and their effects on anthropological filming'
