Gyaan Adab invites you to an evening of rain, roots and reminiscence where four tales revolving around different emotions are reflected in the metaphor of a paper boat. These stories deal with everyday incidents – a father-daughter relationship, friendships in college, romantic struggles of the young and the old. Music, narrative, imagination and the underlying association with the characters and the story create a unique experience.
