Synopsis

Gunu is a disillusioned young man from Satavaya village, who travels restlessly towards death, memories of a past cyclone propelling him into the eye of one that is coming. Hoping to reunite with his lost family, he returns to his village to find that it is now under water.

Our take

Following a man’s lonely search for his village and his family, this quiet drama captures the heart-breaking travails of people who lose their homes and lives in the wake of climate change and rising sea levels. The exceptional camerawork paints a haunting portrait of Odisha’s ravaged coastline.
