Kalrav (Sound of running water)
Directed by Jagdish Bharti9.7
When the pandemic effects became milder, the age-old traditional Kumbh Mela, the traditional gathering of various Hindu sects on the bank of the River Ganga at the holy city of Haridwar, was resumed. 'Rakesh', with no experience of filmmaking, decided on a whim to make a documentary on the theme of the River Ganga and the Kumbh Mela. He got hold of an amateur cameraman, 'Siddartha', and started to shoot, without a story line, a written script, or a plot. The theme of the musical film is: how a story is born, frame by frame, and characters come into being, and how the making of the documentary spiritually transforms the makers as well as the various characters, each in their own way.
