A lonely, mysterious woman in the hills of Darjeeling produces the most elusive and expensive tea in the world. Plucked under mysterious conditions, the ‘Moonlight Thurston’ tea triggers layered sensations encompassing taste, memory, love and pleasure.
This early short by Court director Chaitanya Tamhane shows the roots of his sensibility to explore pertinent political issues through a poetic lens. Told like an age-old fable, an oneiric voice guides us through this tale of greed in which a mystic woman reigns over an isolated village of farmers.
