The Quest

Summary Set in 1950s, "Pather Sandhan", a film based on the famous writer Bibhutibhusan Bandyopadhyay's story 'Anusandhan', delves deep into the life of a poor School Master who could keeps his head high amidst extreme challenges both in his personal and professional fronts. As in other famous novels of Bibhutibhusan like "PatherPanchali", the true essence of rural India can be felt in the film-narrative of "Pather Sandhan". Simple lifestyle of our village-dwellers in the lap of Mother Nature, their little delights, struggles and pains, small wishes and hopes constitute the fabric of the film. Interestingly, the shooting location is a village called Balarampur, which is adjacent to Ray's shooting-location of Pather Panchali at Boral. We were really surprised to find that the real people of our shooting location were not much different than the reel-characters, created by the author about 70 years ago. Thus I think this film certainly reflects a major portion of 'real India' and does have universal appeal with many spoken and unspoken words. Shot in RED Scarlet(4K RAW),the film aims to address Indian as well as International viewers. The film has been set in Black & White to give a realistic 'period' feel and bring out the world of the Master Novelist Bibhutibhusan in its totality. View more details

Broken: The Webseries

Broken: The Webseries

Ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Unlike any other series of its kind, "Broken" is deemed to mix reality and television drama together. It will take you on a journey, through the doors of a struggling community center based in the heart of one of the fastest growing areas in the Eastern US, Raleigh NC. It reveals the drama, lies, love triangles, and infidelity found among some of the highest, well known public figures in the area. The Elam Marshal Community Center serves as a positive getaway to many troubled teens in the Triangle. It's evident that the staff's main goal is the well-being of the occupants, but what happens when the staff of such a highly notable center has secrets of their own? After being handed the title of Director of the Elam Marshal Community Center by her now sickened Mom, Allie is faced with a host of decisions. ? Her marriage with the town's most well- known attorney, Rick Gray, is crumbling. Her baby brother is a hopeless victim to gambling. Her Mom is deathly ill, and due to the poor conditions of the center, the state is now threatening to close its doors forever. Allie is determined to keep her Mother's name alive, by keeping the center open, however Rick feels that the low-budgeted establishment is nothing more than a bottomless, hopeless money pit. It isn't until Rick discovers that Allie has been secretly taking thousands of dollars from their personal account each month to keep the center open that he decides to take matters into his own hands, and do whatever it takes to diminish the existence of the center. He is determined to accomplish this at whatever risk necessary, even if it means sacrificing the safety of his family, or the promises made during his vows.
