Emergence of a unique underground subculture in the volatile Indian subcontinent.
A die hard underground music fan embarks upon a journey across countries, cities and towns of the Indian subcontinent, viz. India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, unravelling a gripping tale of diverse and equally discordant but well connected nexus of a volatile and extreme subculture. This is harsh music and lifestyle emerging from a region steeped in common history and geopolitical strife, that reveals a scathing commentary of our times. This film is an account of one such unique subculture, against the backdrop of rising waves of nationalism, religious radicalism & terror mongering fringe groups in the region.
