The Rest Is Personal…

In a quiet corner of bustling India, a documentary crew sets out to chase an idea as old as myth itself: the nature of true love. While filming a series on romantic devotion, Pramit hears whispered stories of Mohini, a hidden village said to enchant anyone who steps within its borders with an overwhelming sense of love. The notion of a place where affection becomes almost tangible feels like the perfect subject for his film, promising a blend of personal quest and cultural folklore that could redefine what a love story looks like on screen.

Joined by his steady‑hand cameraman, Amit, the pair leave the familiar streets of the city for a landscape that feels both familiar and otherworldly. Their relationship is built on quiet professional respect, punctuated by moments of shared curiosity as they navigate villages, roadside tea stalls, and the reluctant guidance of locals who speak in riddles about the elusive Mohini. The duo’s dynamic balances Pramit’s restless yearning to capture something authentic with Amit’s pragmatic eye for visual truth, creating a subtle tension that fuels the journey even before they reach any destination.

The film moves in a palette of muted earth tones and fleeting bursts of colour, mirroring the elusive nature of the love it seeks to portray. A gentle, almost lyrical tone permeates the narrative, inviting viewers to feel the pull of legend without divulging its secrets. As the road stretches ahead, the audience is left with a lingering sense of wonder: whether love is a place, an illusion, or merely a story waiting to be told, the quest itself becomes a meditation on desire, belief, and the thin line between reality and myth.
