A riveting, visually rich and engaging South Asian tale of an eight-year-old’s journey through faith and self-discovery.‍

In this enchanting and colourful depiction of life in 1980s rural India, two young boys struggle to understand religious belief while experiencing the everyday challenges of childhood and living in a small community. In a world that is exciting but also potentially perilous, conflict over the notion of faith gradually escalates as the film builds to its powerful denouement. Shiladitya Bora’s remarkable feature debut, an articulate exploration of innocence and education, features two extraordinary lead performances.
