A collection of in-competition short films, featuring:
Kambakhat:
Sulaimani: One evening in Paris, two strangers – both young women from Kerala, India, find themselves in an Indian restaurant, where the sights, sounds and smells take them on a symbolic journey of bittersweet memories of their uprooting and emancipation.
Ghost - The Mountains Wait: The emptying villages of the Uttarakhand Himalayas stand as a silent testament to those who migrated away. It is the intimate story of one man's departure for the city and his subsequent internal reckoning with the life he built. Burdened by the heavy guilt of leaving his home and the quiet grief of losing his roots, his story forces us to ask: what do we truly owe to the lands that bore us?
Dekho: A ten year old British Asian boy, Arjun, has to find a way to navigate his world when his grandmother who has dementia, unexpectedly has to stay with him and his mother.
