In an interview, the director of a new historical drama described two years of research into costumes, language and everyday life of the period.
She said local craftspeople built much of the set by hand, and that the cast included hundreds of extras from nearby communities.
We wanted people to see the period as something lived in, not a museum.
The film will be released later this year.
