+Ex-bureaucrat Bikram Singh’s debut feature is
+an invented folk legend set in Shekhawati,
+Rajasthan. When a couple finds their daughter
+terminally ill, a soothsayer directs them to a
+distant village where no girls live beyond the
+age of seven. The cure is to be found in the
+cleaning of an ancient well, which in turn
+uncovers numerous past crimes which have to
+be repented and exorcised before the curse can
+be lifted. Both the script and camerawork are
+relentlessly exoticised in the effort to make an
+orientalist fantasy about superstition.
