Wissenswertes

Production

Ananth Subramaniam was inspired to create Bleat! by the notion of dropping a pregnant goat into a rigid world. Directed by Subramaniam, Bleat! was a co-production between Sixtymac Pictures of Malaysia, Epicmedia Productions of the Philippines, and DW of France. It received funding from the Singapore International Film Festival's Short Film Fund and Singapore's Momo Distribution Grant.

Shot in black-and-white, all of the filming was done in Banting, Malaysia. Shooting was done in black-and-white as Subramaniam felt that "it brings the story closer to reality" and "strips the world down". Subramaniam was inspired by the works of G. Aravindan, Sam Shepard, and Kelly Reichardt. Collaborators included Adrian Wong as cinematographer and Gogularaajan Rajendran as editor.

Subramaniam stated that an "unspoken rule" about being a minority is that "as long as you behave like a goat, everything's fine", but whenever "that goat shows desire, independence, or steps beyond its little patch of farmland, everything around it starts trembling."
