Hansa - A feature film by Manav Kaul
  The Central Himalayas are what most consider an idyllic world. Below the eternally snow clad peaks are several villages. These are largely dependent on agriculture. The roads that pass by them connect them with urban areas, which even now retain an  almost-mythical distance. The city however has begun to move in, with resource stress, dubious land deals and conflicts being the result.
 
  A pair of siblings from one of these villages face this changing world. Their father, for reasons unknown to them, has left their home leaving behind his pregnant wife and children. The worlds of this  brother and sister pair- connected yet separate- is what Hansa portrays with sensitivity.
 
  Cheeku, the older sister, is the target of their lecherous landlord. The other elders in the community turn a blind eye to his all-too-visible approach. Her mother is bed-ridden, her father is absent. Is she helpless or will her innate resilience pull her through?
 
  Hansa is younger, and even his father's disappearance does not affect the rhythm of his days. Hansa and his best friend explore, play and squabble as they have done since they can remember. All this changes when Hansa finds and keeps the local bully's 'lucky' coin. Since then, Hansa is a hunted boy. Adding to his troubles is the ever-unreachable toy. Hansa had borrowed his best friend's ball, only to have it stuck in a tree. There it stays, taunting him, looking close enough to touch- except that it's not. A bully to avoid and an object to desire- how does Hansa tackle these two problems in his life?
 
  The film accurately depicts the issues facing rural Himalayan communities today. Changing land use, urban migration, resource stress are all present in the world that Cheeku and Hansa must negotiate. At its heart, Hansa however remains a story about the resilience and magic of childhood.
