A group of Nepali film students have covered themselves in plastic and wrapped a rope around their neck to highlight the impact of dust pollution in Kathmandu. Students from Kantipur Film Academy took to the streets to protest against the amount of dust in the air, which they say is making it hard for them to breathe. Writer Tanka Chaulagain, who is also a trainer at the academy, coordinated the display and he spoke to SBS Nepali about the feedback they got from the locals about their way to highlight pollution in the capital.
