A village in the hills of Northeast India on the Indo-Myanmar border, Tora. People here have been living their lives following the rhythms of the agricultural seasons, their evenings spent in darkness and semi-darkness punctuated by small solar lamps. When the Electricity Department announces that the village might get electrified, there is a mixed response from the people as they have been let down too many times in the past. Can they dare to believe that this time around the promise made to them will be kept? The film gently traverses through Tora sharing glimpses of life and encouraging the viewer to wonder about what will be gained with the coming of electricity and what might be lost even as the village waits. |
