ALL WE IMAGINE AS LIGHT
Roommates Prabha and Anu, who work at the same hospital, can’t seem to catch a break. Prabha’s life is thrown into chaos when she receives an unexpected gift from her husband, who lives in Germany and hasn’t spoken to her in over a year. Meanwhile, the younger Anu tries in vain to find somewhere in the bustling city to have a clandestine tryst with her boyfriend, who is Muslim. Frustrated and feeling trapped, they decide to flee their urban environment and travel to a picturesque beach town, where a forest beckons to manifest their dreams and desires.
