In this documentary, the narrative unfolds through a 3,000km journey along the Indus River, tracing the path from its glacier-fed origins in the mountains down to the expanses of plains submerged under water from Pakistan's unprecedented floods in 2022. This journey is not only geographical but deeply personal for the director, who takes this opportunity to return to the village of his youth, weaving his personal history with the broader environmental catastrophe.
