Elsewhere in India

Synopsis

A live cinema performance about a world where global cultures are nearing extinction. The protagonists are led by Meenakshi, a ‘cultural cyborg’ built to preserve Indian heritage and create harmony through Indian performative traditions. The immersive visuals consist of 3D video games, AI art and motion captured dance, while presenting an anthology of stories from India in 2079 AD, following a motley crew who playfully connect heritage, science and society through the lens of emergent Indian electro-classical dance music.

Director: Kevin Walls

When meticulous, career-obsessed Cameron (James Rottger) discovers his aimless flatmate Eilidh (Elle Watson) is pregnant after their drunken one-night stand, both assume there is an obvious way out. But when Eilidh finds she cannot go through with the termination, the pair are forced into an awkward, absurd and increasingly intimate attempt at preparing for parenthood. As they stumble into something that looks suspiciously like a relationship, they begin to question the lives they thought they wanted and what they really mean to each other.
