Tumbbad

59th TIFF: Greek Premiere

India, 19th century: on the outskirts of a decrepit village called Tumbbad lives Vinayak, the stubborn, conniving bastard son of the village lord, obsessed with a mythical ancestral treasure. He suspects the secret lies with his great-grandmother, a cursed witch sleeping for centuries. Confronting her finally puts him face to face with the guardian of the treasure, an evil fallen god. Vinayak’s greed keeps escalating till he unearths the biggest secret of all, something more valuable than the treasure itself! A wild fantasy epic, infused with an unconventional Bollywood touch.
