Deccani Souls (2012)
A Film by Kaz Rahman
Canada / India / USA, 2012 Duration: 105 min
Production Format: HD Video Screening Format: HD Video
featuring: M.A. Siddiq, Sathya Bhama, HKS Babu, Mr. Sultan and Mr. Syed
synopsis:
'Deccani Souls' is a mystical journey that begins with Hamza wandering
through a strange landscape of assorted debris in the winter
snowscape. He 'dreams' of another place and time- Hyderabad.
In Hyderabad, Babu works for the government as a 'census' collector.
Babu acts as a kind of door-to-door salesman and initiates elaborate
conversations in order to get people to sign away the forgotten yet
painful history of 1948 and 'Operation Polo'. Meanwhile the Urdu poet
Siddiq struggles with writer's block as he navigates the history and
pulse of the Deccan looking for a lost essay his grandfather wrote
decades earler. They each weave through the portentous streets, cafes
and chaos of Hyderabad trying to make sense of this magically tragic
city.
