For most Indians & Pakistanis a visit to each others’ country is a journey of return of various kinds – to nostalgia, hate, metaphor and reality. This film is one such travelogue, a song of hope, love, longing and betrayal.

Shot in Kolkata, the film explores the experience of growing up gender variant and not being able to understand, let alone explain the difference. The experience of a world where there is 'no one quite like me' is an intensely lonely, fractured and troubled one.

The film questions the urge to define India and Indianness, for consumption by an unseen outsider. This compulsion makes us tourists in our own reality, dispossessed of our experience of being Indian. If we could only see, an essential indefinable India waits, timelessly, for us to claim it and call it home.
