Whispers of Fire & Water is a journey plagued by depleting natural resources and delineated by two elements–fire and water. Shiva, an audio installation artist, visits the largest coalmine region of Eastern India. He is not only overwhelmed by the sights of fire that have been haunting the area for a hundred years, but also by a colossal scale of sounds. Faced with the highly complex sociopolitical system, his life gets intertwined with that in the mines. Fire, as an element, engulfs him. Shiva eventually moves to a tribal village in a dense forest area, along with Deepak, a worker in the coal mine who hails from the village. The panoply of sounds which he experiences in dense forests, along with his conversations with Deepak, trigger an inward personal journey which questions his values, gaze and fundamental notion of self. Water, as an element, forms the labyrinth of his quest for truth.
