Parity Pipeline

Somewhere Over The Rainbow

Directed by Koval Bhatia

An Indian woman travels across the world to reconnect with the father figure who shaped her childhood, only to realise over time that she doesn’t quite agree with the isolated life he built. After years of searching for home and belonging in distant places, she decides to go back to her roots, and embrace the contradictions and messy chaos of the life she wanted to escape.
