Uhile ko Nepal - Toni Hagen
47 min,

Uhile ko Nepal - Toni Hagen and his 14,000 km journey on foot through Nepal

This rare footage narrated by the late Dr Toni Hagen was filmed between 1950 - 1960 when Nepal had just been opened to foreigners. Hagen first visited Nepal in 1950 with a first Swiss development assistance mission. He was asked to look for diamonds but ended up documenting the people and their lives during a time before cars, planes and roads. This footage of Nepal before modernization is truly extraordinary and will amaze those people who have visited the country.

Special Events!
Please Note:
Citadel renovations are ongoing, so Metro Cinema continues to screen in the Rice Theatre, just down the hall from our normal room. Until we return to the Zeidler, screenings will continue to be from video, and not from 35mm.
Also, all Silver Screen passes are good for 3 months past their normal date of expiry, to thank you for your patience.
