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 heart of man ever finds a constant succession of passions, so that the destroying and pulling down of one proves generally to be nothing else but the production and the setting up of another.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“In the production of the necessaries of life Nature is ready enough to assist man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
