The untold story of Indian independence is seen through the decor of the Dishoom restaurant in Kings Cross, formerly a railway transit shed built in 1850. Dishoom co-founder Shamil Thakrar and history teacher Shalina Patel wander through the space after hours, discussing key figures and events, while the film illustrates this narration with a mixture of live action and animation.

Intro and Q&A with Dishoom co-founder Shamil Thakrar, director Sanvir Singh, and animator and illustrator Gagandeep, moderated by Ashvin Devasundaram (Senior Lecturer, World Cinema Queen Mary University)
