‘Under the Radar’ celebrates unseen cinema from Asia Pacific filmmaking highlighting hidden gems from regions that produce a very small number of feature films each year. Drawing on the past ten years, ‘Under the Radar’ includes works from Macau, Nepal, Afghanistan, Bhutan, Tibet, Samoa and Kyrgyzstan. The films reveal cinematic storytelling directly connected to the culture represented. This level of intimacy affords a distinctive and deep engagement with place and people: a fascinating glimpse into lives rarely portrayed on the big screen.
