Faith Connections
Filmmaker Pan Nalin travels to the Kumbh Mela, one of the world's most extraordinary religious events. There, he encounters remarkable men of mind and meditation, some facing an inextricable dilemma: to embrace the world or to renounce it. FAITH CONNECTIONS explores such diverse and deeply moving stories such as those of a young runaway kid; a Sadhu; a mother desperately looking for her lost son; a yogi who is raising an abandoned baby; and an ascetic who keeps his calm by smoking cannabis, all connected by one faith against the spectacular display of devotion.

“A personal, yet profoundly universal, cinematic essay that interweaves … disparate tales into a meditative, entertaining and provocative tapestry.”
— Saibal Chatterjee, BBC
