SHORT SYNOPSIS

Who, exactly, is an adult? Are the rich better and are the educated actually educated? And most of all, what does one have to do to relieve himself in private? These are some of the

questions that eight- year-old Pichku (Tathastu) tries to answer in Nila Madhab Panda’s upcoming film Halkaa.

Also starring Ranvir Shorey and Paoli Dam, the film will be released on August 31, 2018. It is a simple yet colourful story from the slums, Panda told Scroll.in. “It is about an eight-year- old child who does not want to take off his pants in front of others as his whole community opts for open defecation,” Panda said. “It is basically about a child and his questions about adults.” (Quelle: Scroll.in)
