Synopsis

An affectionate and magical documentary about Babaji Basant, a Hindu shaman who is allegedly over 100 years old. Every day he lies in a homemade grave in his backyard where his wife is buried, waiting to be reunited with her. But people travel from far and wide to consult him for his vast knowledge of herbal medicine and healing. A gentle and lyrical film interspersed with beautiful songs from a traditional Indian singer who sings of life, love and death in a tribute to Babaji.
