Plot
"Narakasur" is a short film in which we've endeavoured to utilize the art of masks to narrate the story of King Narakasur in a theatrical form. Mrinal, a dedicated science teacher in a government school, employs a unique blend of evolutionary theory and the mythology of Vishnu's avatars to engage his students. However, his nights turn bizarre as he becomes entangled in a recurring cycle, transforming into a feral being. Through this surreal journey, we explore the delicate boundary between evolved humanity and primal instincts in contemporary society along with a portrayal of what reverse evolution might entail.
