✦ Synopsis


In these impressionistic and mystical stories and sketches, identities flow into one another in the drag of time—often unknowingly maintaining adversarial relations to each other in the general symbiotic culture.

Here you find an aging escort sipping on gin-n-juice in a hotel in McLeod Ganj; a quaint brass-deity come haunting an Indo-Tibetan youth; a poacher, called Bucephalia, hunting down a musk deer in a dale in Kashmir; a Daoist shrine-keeper casting a Vedic horoscope. Whether it is the Buddha emerging from a veil of mist or the surge of humanity converging in the Kumbha-Mela, it takes you to the seductive realm of intertwined patterns of destiny which nevertheless transcends space and time, cultural and religious boundaries.
