This documentary focuses on a festival called Kumbh Mela, which takes place every 12 years in India. Few people outside of the country have heard of Kumbh Mela--an astonishing fact, as it draws one of the largest congregations in the history of the world--some 70 million people. SHORT CUT TO NIRVANA aims to change all that, affording the rest of the world a chance to glimpse this amazing event, a joyous celebration of life that focuses on concepts such as peace, harmony, and respect for one's fellow human beings.
