Production
In keeping with the production of Norbu's previous movie The Cup, no professional actors (save Dendup - a radio actor) were used - auditions were held to select the cast from all walks of life - including farmers, schoolchildren, and employees of the Bhutan Broadcasting Service, Government of Bhutan and the Royal Bodyguard. Many production decisions, including casting and fixing the date of release, were chosen using Mo - an ancient method of divination.

Famous quotes containing the word production:
“From the war of nature, from famine and death, the most exalted object which we are capable of conceiving, namely, the production of the higher animals, directly follows. There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.”
—Charles Darwin (1809–1882)
“The repossession by women of our bodies will bring far more essential change to human society than the seizing of the means of production by workers.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“To expect to increase prices and then to maintain them at a higher level by means of a plan which must of necessity increase production while decreasing consumption is to fly in the face of an economic law as well established as any law of nature.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
