A 38-minute love letter to art and nature that greedy developers want to erase.
Uttam Das, a folk singer of Bengal, built an Ashram for music in his native village, on the riverbank of Ajay. This Ashram is a unique example, in the modern world where an artist lacks free space to practice art. The artists gather here to celebrate music and the silence of nature uninterruptedly. In ashram rain arrives, seasons change, and stillness of the time persists. But today man's greed tries to destroy the river and the surroundings, pains the land and the artist.
Sound
Folk music bleeding into rain, river, and absolute silence.
