Sarkhej

Sarkhej is a group of monuments under the protection of the Archaeological Survey of India which lie 8 kilometers from the city of Ahmedabad in Gujarat, India. The primary monument that attracts thousands of visitors is the mausoleum of a Sufi saint. The film Sarkhej is about the interaction of the people with this space. Overtly it is an account of the oral history of the area and the historical figures that used to inhabit it. But subtly one sees layers of emotions while also sampling the vibrant and varied social fabric of Gujarat.
