Synopsis

Director Michael Pilz: "No haste in this diary from India. Surroundings, way of life, colours, lights, sounds, one threaded into the next and all speaking to each other, loud and then soft. Making films and seeing films is, for me, like getting in a train, looking outside and being amazed: just look what's all going on! Something is going on! Be open, allow yourself to be overwhelmed, to be moved, by chance, irrespective of how strange it is, or how inexplicable, and sometimes also disgusting. I am just hungry, curious, but not only about what happens in front of the camera or on the screen, but also about what happens to me. Sometimes the most incredible things happen."
