Synopsis

Time is uncomfortably relative in our hero’s world as he struggles to make the perfect watch to keep up with the times. A labour of love, this animated science fiction is set in the director’s hometown of Kerala. Impressively made using only open-source software; this temporal adventure is testament to what can be created at no cost with a bit of talent and well—time.
