This reportage documentary, presented by W.for.W Foundation in collaboration with Sansera Ideas@ Work and WODER, follows environmentalist and researcher Dr. Mansee Bal Bhargava as she journeys along the sacred waters of the Ganga at the historic Kumbh Mela. Through her lens and the people she interviews, we explore the spiritual, cultural, and ecological significance of India's rivers, delving into the ancient legacy of the Kumbh, the vital role of water in pilgrimage, and the urgent need for sustainable practices. Set against the backdrop of one of the world's largest gatherings of humanity, the film investigates how centuries-old faith meets contemporary environmental challenges, and asks: how can we protect our rivers from the impact of the very devotees who revere them?
