Vikram Bhandari, a filmmaker, embarked on a journey to India in August 2008, leaving behind the orderly streets of Germany where he had made his home. He was drawn to India's kaleidoscope of colors and a melange of flavors, which he believed was a storyteller's haven, attracting artists, photographers, and filmmakers. Hailing from India, it only made sense for him to weave a narrative set against the backdrop of this enchanting land.

 

During his two-week expedition, he met Jonathan, an adventurer who had traveled 5000 km in India on a shoestring budget of $100. As they strolled through the night, Jonathan shared his own narrative, and the scent of a cinematic idea lingered in the air. Vikram persuaded him to collaborate on a project in India.

 

Upon Jonathan's return to the States, he proposed returning to India, accompanied by his father, Peter, who was battling Huntington's Disease. Vikram was initially skeptical about the feasibility of such an endeavor, given the care an HD patient necessitates, but Jonathan remained resolute. He believed in the power of their rare father-son relationship, a story that transcended borders.

​

Upon reflection, Jonathan's unwavering belief in the idea swayed him to undertake this unique project. Looking back, he realized that the alignment of events wasn't mere luck but a manifestation of providence. Often, opportunities knock at our door, and the trick is to be attuned to the one that matters. He was thankful that, eventually, he opened that door and was able to tell a tale beyond his wildest dreams.
