Steeped and Stirred

A documentary by Shweta Ghosh

50m
India

Overview

The Film explores the multiple meanings of tea and through them finds out how we function as a nation. It takes one through the eccentric experience of the country’s diversity- from the strong, frothy chaya and luxurious orthodox leaf tea to the milky-spicy ginger chaha and savoury sheer chai. Through myriad preparation and drinking practices of the camellia sinesis, the Film uncovers the varied identities and paradoxes that sometimes make and sometimes break the idea of India.
