hello.

We are still looking for one or more people able to translate filmed 
interviews from Bhilali into English. We managed to find translators 
for Hindi, Gujarati, Pavri and Kutchi, but our Bhilali translator 
unfortunately had to drop out. We are now getting a bit desperate, so 
please get in touch if you know Bhilali or forward this message to 
someone who might be able to help.

The film is an hour-long documentary about the fight against the 
Narmada Dam. The film was shot over three months in India this summer 
and will (hopefully) be sold for broadcast later this year - we don't 
have a commission but do have an international distribution deal.

We can pay a small hourly fee.

NB. The translations don't have to be absolutely perfect as the 
sections of interviews used will be checked again before the finished 
film goes out.

Please get in touch for more info.

Best wishes,
