The portrait of Eberhard Fischer, a Swiss ethnographer and art historian whose life has been devoted to documenting artistic practices across cultures, from mask carvers in Africa to painters in India. His work led to enduring collaborations, including one with filmmaker Amit Dutta. Drawing on archival footage and memory, the film reflects on a long creative friendship.

Born in 1977 in India, he studied at the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII) and is now regarded as one of the leading experimental filmmakers from his country. His work spans literary adaptations, fiction, documentary, video diaries, and animation, often blurring genres to engage directly with his subjects.
