In true Masala style, Rare Earth Project is proud to present Mission: Love at Katja House, the result of a 2 day long videomaking workshop at the Katja House, a boarding house for 65 children in the countryside of Lalitpur, Nepal, an hour outside of Kathmandu. From storyboarding to shooting to editing, to uploading to Youtube, kids were introduced to all aspects of the production process. This video is really reflective of the pop culture savvy of some of the students, as well as their interrogation of changing cultural values, gender roles, etc.
