Followed by a discussion with the filmmaker’s.
About the Film: In a Naga village in Manipur on the Indo-Myanmar border, seventy years after Indian independence, news floats in that electricity might arrive. People are skeptical as they have been let down too often in the past. A woman dreams of a better future for her family. A century-old man feels that nothing will ever change. Life flickers between hope and frustration, idealism and pragmatism as a village waits.
