Suman Sen

In Mustang – one of the remotest districts of Nepal - childhood is often threatened by “loss, migration, and vanishing certainties.” Here, geography dictates destiny. When confronted by this harsh landscape, what do children dream of? What brings them joy, and how far do they travel for it? ‘The Silent Echo’ is director Suman Sen’s attempt to “listen to children growing up in a landscape where nature is both guardian and threat.”⁠ ⁠ The film follows the journey of four young friends from Mustang who are determined to navigate the practical obstacles to achieve one big dream - winning a band competition in a distant town. Despite the bleak conditions, the children share inner worlds [which] remain tender and playful. ⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in bio to watch the full film on NOWNESS ASIA 🎬⁠ ⁠ Writer-Director @sumansen ⁠ Produced By: Suman Sen, Vivek Modi, Dominique Welinski, Bijon, Arifur Rahman & Ram Krishna Pokharel⁠ Co-writer: Bijon ⁠ Cinematography: Xohaer Musavvir ⁠ Sound: Rana Eid, Lama Sawaya, Shrawal RP⁠ Edit: Olivier Jahan ⁠ Music: Mayukh Moinak ⁠ Lyrics: Saurav Rai ⁠ Colour: Yov Moor⁠ Post Production:cineli Digital (Paris) Frederic Busnel Joncour⁠ Cast: Kunsang Gurung, Tashi Wangdue Gurung, Pema Wangyal Gurung, Tsering Dhundup Gurung

The city has a nonchalant sea. . . . The sheer presence of it is pleasing enough to give a sense of solace to some, but it has gigantic hunger which feeds on despair. It makes you lonely enough to distance furthest from yourself, cold enough to make you uncannily stoic, fuzzy enough to push you to the edge.
