The Dive of Dharmapada | Children's Film Festival

Konark, when it was completed was the pinnacle of Kalingan architecture. And the fixing of the Kalasha (Crown) was the most complex part of the construction. It was only a child who could grasp the complexity of fixing the Kalasha. And he grasped that knowledge through the innate nature that every child has. The sense of wonder.

This is the story after he dives into the darkness of the ocean after completing a structure that worships light.
