if the movie is Nepali and if the title is really "Mirchi", it could be a film set in the Terai region of Nepal. Just a guess.

And it must be one of the artsy short films ... these are usually good ones .. remember Ujeli? or short-feature Mukundo?

I wonder if there are any plans on showing the movie in other cities besides NYC.

chicadenepal, I agree that we should support Nepali but don't you think it should go where it matters... $20 dls for 30 min movie... I personally wouldn't go..coz' I don't have that much money to spend...like meera said, I am working .. student.. However, now I found out it's $10, i might consider going..

Mirchi, as far as I know is a hindi word. Might be used by ppl from Terai...i don't know.

Lets' not call this a movie, may be we should call it mini movie

not to sound ignorant towards our brothers and sisters from the terai region because they are just as much nepalis as people from other region. but i consider it a slap in my face when i hear promotion of nepal but the content doesn't reflect nepal or nepaliness. just like the title of this movie? mini movie? piece? or bollywood dance piece at nepali cultural event or nepali restaurant with indian name....sure it?s an easier sell in the west because they are much more familiar with the indian culture and traditions than our own. but if we don't want to get pissed off next time someone tells us nepal is a part of india or nepal has basically the same culture and tradition as indians.....i think we need to create an identity of our own and nothing signifies more in an identity than "name"....so that?s why im kinda bitter about the title of this movie.

having that said....i should also point out that i know nothing about this movie nor have i seen it....so these are my own biased opinions and you're all welcome to express yours.

I dunno what everyone is bitching about. I mean 10 or 20 bucks.. consider it a donation to people who actually made an effort to make this feature. There are a lotta Nepali people who religiously go see Indian movies every weekend. Why not contribute even 10 or 20 bucks to your Nepali brothers and sisters. Consider it a contribution so that more and more people will start making more features films which in return would make nepali film industry better. We need to support these folks who at least made an effort. And if its in a film festival, its not within the film makers to price the tickets. Its a price of drinks in a Bar. C'mon now !
