BAYBERRIES RIPEN IN THE MONSOON

(20 mins | Garhwali with English subtitles | 2024 | Fiction | India)

Dir. Pulkit Tomar | Prod. Creating Tales Production

In a small village nestled in the hills of Uttarakhand, India, a young boy's attempt to call a bird from a local folktale by offering kafals (bayberries) is interwoven with the story of an elderly woman sending a letter to her distant daughter. As the letter arrives, it reveals the deep struggles faced by mountain communities, uncovering the challenges that shape their everyday lives.
