New Moon Rain

Madan, 55, a devoted father shaped by the traditions of his South Asian homeland, has built his life around his daughters’ future in America. One night, a moment of discipline, so ordinary where he came from, leaves marks that speak differently here. Accusations rise, careers crumble, and the home he sacrificed for turns its back. As whispers of judgment close in, memories of his late parents and the riverbanks of his youth blur into the streets he now wanders. On a new moon night, a dream offers him comfort, and he walks into the darkness, leaving behind questions that echo between two worlds.
