The project aimed to document the impact of the disaster, provide accurate ground-level information, and support ongoing relief and recovery efforts.
Working in one of the most severely affected regions, including Gorkha, the team faced extreme conditions such as damaged infrastructure, unstable terrain, and continuous aftershocks. Despite these challenges, Kathmandu Films conducted extensive field research, helping identify destroyed villages and assisting in tracing missing individuals. The work involved high-risk travel, long trekking routes, and real-time coordination to gather reliable information.
Chandan Jha and Kathmandu Films worked as Producer, Line Producer, and Fixer, managing research, filming, logistics, coordination, and full on-ground execution. The team ensured that accurate and meaningful content was delivered under highly challenging circumstances, contributing to both documentation and relief awareness.
As part of their commitment to social responsibility, Kathmandu Films also supported local communities by distributing tents to families who had lost their homes.
This project stands as a powerful example of Kathmandu Films’ dedication to impactful storytelling, humanitarian support, and the ability to operate effectively in crisis environments with resilience and purpose.
