THE SYNOPSIS

RABINDRANATH TAGORE’S ELDER BROTHER JYOTIRINDRANATH TAGORE, A WESTERN EDUCATED BRIGHT YOUNG MAN FROM THE 19TH CENTURY BENGAL MET THE OCTOGENARIAN LALAN FAQIR AND DREW A POTRAIT OF THE POET SAINT IN THE FORMER’S HOUSEBOAT AFLOAT THE RIVER PADMA. JYOTIRINDRANATH, AN URBAN INTELLECTUAL EXCHANGE VIEWS WITH THE MAN OF NATIVE WISDOM. THEIR EXCHANGE OF IDEAS FORM THE CINEMATIC NARRATIVE OF THIS FILM. THE NARRATIVE IS A SAGA OF THE LIFE AND TIME OF LALAN FAQIR AND HIS LIBERAL SECT WHO LIVED A LIFE OF HIGH ORDER IN AN OTHERWISE SUPERSTITIOUS 19TH CENTURY INDIAN SOCIETY. LALAN INHERITED THE BEST OF THE LIBERAL AND ENLIGHTENED TRADITION OF HINDUISM, BUDDHISM AND ISLAM TO DEVELOP A PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE WHICH IS EXTREMELY SECULAR AND TOLERANT. THUS BECAME AN EASY PREY FOR THE FUNDAMENTALISTS OF THE HINDU AND MUSLIM INSTITUTIONS. THEY WERE THE PARALLEL STREAM FLOWING FREELY IN THE HEART OF RURAL BENGAL WHEN MEN LIKE RABINDRANATH TAGORE WERE GERMINATING IDEAS OF THE BENGAL RENAISSANCE.

THE LOVE AND COMPASSION OF LALAN IS RELEVANT MORE THAN EVER IN TODAY’S WORLD OF INTOLERANCE AND HATE.
