An Autumn Fable

1997 • Directed by

Pinky Brahma Choudhury

A conniving muscleman with the strength and appetite of a dozen men; a prince kidnapped as a child returns to claim his throne disguised as a beast; a beautiful princess whose swordplay defeats all. Each autumn, the Bodo tribespeople act out legends from an ancient tradition under the open night sky. Songs, dances, and fighting scenes set against lively music entertain... and provide a marked contrast to the day shots of tension in the conflict-stricken region
