Pakistan, huh?

That's a tough sell. If you have a (well-written) script and know how to direct, or know a director, I'd contact Omar Ali Khan, who's film Hell's Ground (Zibahkhana) was a real departure from most Pakistani film. Straight gorey horror with no musical numbers! You can probably get his contact info from the Pakistan Ministry of Culture.

Become his friend. Ask him if he needs a P.A. (production assistant) for anything. Learn from him, ask him to mentor you.

He got his film made with the assistance of Pete Tombs and Andy Starke from Mondo Macabro (mondmacabrodvd.com). They are a pair of globe-trotting cult film archeologists dedicated to bringing obscure cult cinema from odd markets to the west.
