Anand Patwardhan is an institution. This time, India's leading documentary filmmaker dedicates a film to his immediate family. Starting with his parents' and relatives' stories, he crafts an unusual documentary tapestry, where personal anecdotes weave into momentous historical events. Illustrated with unique archival materials, stories of uncles and aunts who, together with Gandhi, organized resistance against the British authorities, make the past come alive, suddenly comprehensible and proximate. Patwardhan's film is also an ode to family ties, tiny gestures that bind us together and an immortal sense of humour forming a poignant documentary that explores the passage of time, the essence of dignity, and the resonance of memory, incidentally yet deliberately anchored in the fabric of modern India.
