Life in the Land of Gods
Four years in the making, Discovery Atlas: India Revealed is a stunning portrait of an incredible nation. By following the lives of several people across India, we discover the country's heart and hopes and dreams. Viewers will meet Jyoti, a boatman who helps pilgrims carry out sacred Hindu rituals on the banks of the River Ganga, and Krishna, the cable guy of Asia's biggest slum, who brings charity to an extraordinary and tightly knit community. Geeta, the wedding planner for India's growing elite, helps couples realize the wedding of their dreams, along with all its elaborate traditions. At Rishikesh, nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas, captured in all their majesty, we meet 9-year-old Anuj, a farmer's son who, with the help of Swami Chidanand Saraswati, will train to become a pandit.
Discovery Atlas: India Revealed presents this beautiful and complex nation to the world with stunning photography and gripping stories. It is a documentary that will excite those who don't know India, but may also be a film that will be a source of great pride for those who love the country.
