In Search of Buddha
Synopsis
"In Search of Buddha" follows two filmmakers, Atish and Deepankar, as they embark on a quest to uncover the truth about a forgotten Naxal leader named Buddha. Shrouded in mystery, Buddha's fate remains a topic of intrigue, with no records of his encounter, survival, or demise.
Despite completing their film, the duo's journey transcends the screen; their search for Buddha becomes a metaphorical exploration of truth, forcing them to confront the complexities of history, memory, and narrative.
