Sundarpur Chaos

The story centres on land encroachment affecting some satras in Assam, and follows young people and thinkers shaped by the state's economic and political climate, exploring their state of mind and inner conflicts.

Kinkar is a teenager from a satra, closely tied to the traditional dance and music inspired by Srimanta Sankardeva's neo-Vaishnavite movement. Though rooted in tradition, he has a modern outlook and takes the problem of illegal intrusion into his homeland seriously. Later he faces an inner struggle between the nonviolence he has learned and an intolerance that grows out of circumstances. That conflict shapes his journey as he looks for a path between tradition and duty.

Jhulan Krishna Mahanta wrote, directed and edited the film. Parthapratim Hazarika plays Kinkar, with Arun Nath, Rajib Goswami, Jolly Laskar, Gargi Dutta and many others in the cast, along with several child actors. Chandra Kumar Das was the cinematographer and Debajit Gayan handled sound. The art direction was by Gargi Dutta, Dibas Jyoti Baruah and Prasanta Kalita, and Dipjyoti Sandik designed the VFX and poster.

Dr. Saurav Mahanta composed the music, with lyrics by Manjula Hazarika and Gayatri Hazarika. A naam prasanga based on Sankardeva's Kirtan Ghosha is included. The songs were sung by Angarag Mahanta, Shaan and Gayatri Hazarika.
