Inspired by a true story, "Lokkhi Chhele (An Angel's Kiss)" depicts the shackles of human superstition and the power of human belief. It is inherent in the power of cinema to precipitate universal conversations, and in the nature of Kaushik Ganguly's cinema to do the same. "Lokhhi Chhele" is rural story with a global appeal.

In Bengali with English subtitles.

Lokkhi Chhele (An Angel's Kiss)

When religion is the impetus for civil war; when crippling superstition and stubborn faith has blinded an independent nation; "Lokkhi Chhele" tells a story of unconditional love and compassion in a dark hour of disillusionment – where, at the end, the only religion that stands steadfast, strong, and undefeated is humanity.
