In the hills of northeast India, far from the Indian mainland and mainstream consciousness, there is a village of the Naga community called Tora. Years of neglect coupled with a long history of insurgency have meant that basic civic amenities are conspicuous by their absence. Seventy years after Indian independence, the people hear that electricity is finally on its way. They are wary as they have been let down too often in the past. Khamrang, the grand old man of the village, watches with a skeptical eye. His real dream is to see his people attain sovereignty. Jasmine, a pragmatic woman, sees an opportunity in the coming of electricity. Does electricity arrive in Tora? Does it bring the promised joy?
