Fairy Folk by Karan Gour
Thorny questions of love and sexuality take center stage in this magical realist drama in which a genderless woodland being crashes into the lives of a jaded couple.
Director Karan Gour’s Fairy Folk is a fairytale of sorts. Stranded in the middle of nowhere, Ritika and Mohit chance upon a hairless, genderless being. It has the ability to bond with anyone who is willing to give it attention, love, and kindness. Once a bond is built, the being transforms into a brand new human, bearing a soul identical to that of the bonder. Besides gender, this new person shares no other physical attributes. Needless to say, this transformation brings waves of conflict into Ritika and Mohit’s relationship, some inconsequential, some catastrophic.
