IEWDUH (MARKET)

Iewduh is the name of one of the liveliest markets in North East India. The locals know its streets, shops and shopkeepers. The director believes that all these anonymous beings who circulate in the market every day deserve attention because their respective stories coexist despite differences concerning their membership and religion. The magic of this visual story consists basically in appreciating the daily life of beings who do not aspire to be considered as heroes but as normal, ordinary people.
