FILMING on Mister Pip movie began in Pidia, Central Bougainville, officials advised from the venue yesterday.
Young Bougainvillean Xannjah Matsi plays the main character- Matilda while Francesca Semoso, Florance Korokoro and Dr Joel Healesville, all Bougainvillean women, take on their roles on stage.
The drama is based on the novel by New Zealander Lloyd Jones and tells the story of the last white man who left the strife-torn island of Bougainville during the 1990 blockade by Papua New Guinea Government.
The last white man, Mr Watts, reopens a school and uses his favourite novel, Dickens’ Great Expectations, to inspire students, particularly a gifted 14-year-old named Matilda.
The action takes place during the decade-long civil war in the Autonomous Province, off the coast of Papua New Guinea.
People from all over Bougainville have been excited about the movie and have thanked the New Zealand team for taking the risk to come over to Bougainville to shoot, especially when the place is still undergoing peace process.
The film will also be shot in parts of New Zealand and Australia.

ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the Bougainville people and the New Zealand film makers. While it is great news to here the filming is starting, we as hosts should appreciate this and not cause any inconvenience to the stay of these expatriates. The people of Bougainville now have a chance of showing the world that movies can be shot in this part of the world also.
Go Tin Pis Run-Over to you Sankamap!...
