THE PIT presents… “Growling Mountains” : a travel through the metal scene from Nepal
|
| | In Nepal, the metal scene is thriving. From its beginning at the end of the 90s, where only a few bands existed, the scene has spread to around forty active bands. The film – directed by the Frenchwoman Aurore Laurent – meets five of them and actors of that underground movement. A generation of Nepalis who wants to get emancipated from traditions and violences that the country has known the last twenty years.. |
