Detailed Description

"Balram, Short Film" is a project about treasure hunters and their beliefs about treasures. In this narrative fiction project, I attempted to investigate various aspects of visual storytelling and filmmaking, such as preproduction, production, and postproduction. I have made this short film based on news from various places in India and experiences from my village. In this story, Balram is the main character who believes in the treasures and wants to earn money through shortcuts. Though I have drawn inspiration from the real events in my village, I have also added fictional characters to this film. How the Balram fell into the treasure-hunting trap—in the process of rescuing his friend—and finally, he drags his son into the treasure hunt. The aim of this short film is to communicate Balram's character and the journey towards the treasure.
