Film Synopsis

Two siblings, each living far from the region where they grew up, speak over the phone about their deserted childhood home in southern Assam. As the area rapidly gives way to newer structures, formations, and beliefs, their conversation holds the home in place through memory and shared recollection. The film explores how connection to a place survives physical distance and the passage of time.
