Storyline

On June 29, 1792, Neelkanth begins his journey of awakening. Having resolved to embrace the challenges of nature, he leaves his home in the city of Ayodhya. Neelkanth walks alone into the cold stormy night, wearing nothing over his shoulders or under his feet, carrying nothing - no maps, no money, no food - except inner courage, confidence and a silent spiritual strength. At the Saryu River, he enters the cold, raging current. Neelkanth is swept away, leaving behind all that was familiar.

This is an ultra-romanticized vision of a crowded, complicated nation.

The film celebrates India's diversity and makes a strong and moving plea for unity among the peoples of the world.

At 45 minutes, you're left wanting more detail in the story, but with narration from Peter O'Toole, for whom the clich about reading the phone book is true, it certainly never outstays its welcome, ending as an absorbing appetiser.

Colorful, respectful and features cinematography (by Reed Smoot) so flat-out beautiful that you'll spend most of its 40 minutes with your mouth open.
