This episode of Film Forward features the documentarian Lucas Millard, co-director of the new film, Baato.
Baato is follows Mikma and her family as they travel by foot from their village deep in the Himalaya of Nepal to sell local medicinal plants in urban markets. This year, construction of a new highway to China has begun in their roadless valley, and things are never going to be the same.
As always, our guests join us in our segment Gimme Three, where they hook us up with 3 film recommendations of films that have inspired them and inspired their work.
Baato will be available to view at the Austin Film Festival from October 23rd - 25th. Visit AustinFilmFestival.com for tickets.
