Experiencing Interruptions?

Utsav

A village fair organised by an NGO in the middle of a small village in Rajasthan becomes a hub for entertainment, education, and fun and is a platform to connect folk entertainment to its true audience . Capturing the essence of the fair in an observational way, the film is made single handedly by the film maker with the use of minimal resources.
