Patrick Frater Asia Bureau Chief Ridham Janve, an already acclaimed director attending the Film Bazaar with his second film “Hunter’s Moon” (aka “Kaatti Ri Raatti”), likens the editing process to a game of long-distance chess that he played with star editor Amit Dutta. “I would send him bursts of files, notes and elements of the mood, but not the narrative. That meant he had some surprises, such as the introduction of an important character midway through the story, but it was fascinating to have him discover my film from a different angle,” Janve told Variety. The largely remote editing process was not a COVID-era necessity, but rather reflected the fact that both Janve and Dutta are men close to nature and who live in mountainous regions. Mountains were key to Janve’s previous film “The Gold-Laden Sheep and the Sacred Mountain,” and are again more than just a setting for his “Hunter’s Moon.” The film’s narrative follows a hunter who stashes the meat he had caught in a place he thought to be safe.
