Hunter's Moon

Directed by Ridham Janve

With Chamel Singh, Saroj Kumari, Ajay Kumar and Lokendra Gurung

After a successful season in the Upper Dhauladhar Mountains, a hunter hides his meat in a cave and heads home with his first load. At home, his wife is upset over his prolonged absence and its impact on their disabled daughter. He promises to return quickly and the next morning, sets out to retrieve the rest of the meat and leave the forest for the season. To his dismay, he finds the cave empty and the meat stolen. Using his hunter instincts he launches a desperate search through the treacherous mountain, discovering that the rival is just as cunning. In this quest for meat, humans behave no differently than wild animals. Battling harsh conditions and difficult terrains, they go to all extremes to prove themselves stronger and more deserving. This allegorical tale of conflicting morals and twisted values reveals the true nature of man in the wild.
