Jugnuma: The Fable
Hindi with English subtitles ( 119 mins )
Set against the backdrop of the late 1980s Himalayas, Jugnuma tells the story of Dev, an orchard owner tormented by the strange phenomenon of trees mysteriously catching fire overnight. His quest to uncover the cause leads him deep into long-buried family secrets and haunting local folklore.
Filmed entirely on celluloid, this evocative tale weaves together myth, memory, and reality, creating a poetic, dreamlike experience that lingers beyond time.
