Our take
This poignant, short documentary takes an incisive look at the aftermath of the second wave of the pandemic in New Delhi, India. Delicately juxtaposing audio testimony with day-to-day visuals of the city, Toofaan is a haunting account of the traumatic tribulations suffered by its inhabitants.
