SYNOPSIS:
After the death of his father, Manish's uncles start taking his life decisions. His journey leads him to a questionable point when he begins a secret love affair with a cousin and the family finds itself in the midst of another death.

Director’s Bio :
Deepankar Prakash is an Indian film director and screenwriter. Deepankar made his directorial debut with the critically acclaimed film Mooso - The Mouse. He has also made a Hotstar Quix Original web-series called Crime Next Door. As a filmmaker, he is known for his award winning short films such as Masakkali, Kaagpanth, Podarok and Naked Voice.

Director’s Note:
The Take: For Naanera to be a true mirror to the dynamics of a Rajasthani family, for how in our constant need to cater to the societal pressure makes us forget the people whose lives are getting affected. Like in this case, Manish’s decisions are taken for him but he is foremost a young boy who hasn’t yet come to terms with his grief.
