The Umesh Chronicles
Synopsis
Radha, a 12-year-old girl growing up in a privileged, middle class home in the 1980s, is surrounded by family, books, and music. She has limited contact with Sundar, a boy who works for her family but whose presence opens her eyes. At once intimate and epic, this coming-of-age drama is a tender portrait of familial love and personal growth in a changing society.
