118 minute running time … if you want to be trapped on a Nepalese cable car for two excruciating hours, this movie is for you … it’s another production from the Sensory Ethnography Lab like Leviathan and The Iron Ministry (which I liked because I know Chinese trains well), both of which were more successful than this one … if two hours wasn’t enough, the DVD includes another 30+ minutes of footage of more morose Nepalese trapped inside a cable car. They showed this one at Abu Ghraib on repeat in between dog attacks and rubber hose beatings.
John Farr is to blame, once again: “Not for all tastes, but patient, adventurous viewers should feel rewarded.” Rewarded or suicidal.
When Kalika heard this, she fled. [Except she was trapped inside a cable car]
