Dir. Shambhavi Kaul / 2023 / 9 mins / USA, India / No Dialogue / Documentary, Experimental / Australian Premiere

Monkeys overrun the remains of an ancient civilisation in this rich reflection on myth and reality.

In this uncanny study of the coexistence of the past and present, filmmaker Shambhavi Kaul trains her camera on a World Heritage Site in Hampi, India, where the colossal ruins of a bygone society are picked over by a group of monkeys.
