See the films the platforms disagree about most →In 1940s Calcutta, a young, intuitive man takes on his first case as a detective. He is hired to find a missing person, a simple investigation that quickly spirals into a complex web of murder, opium smuggling, and political conspiracy. The rookie sleuth must use his sharp intellect to navigate the city's dark underbelly and untangle a mystery far greater than he initially imagined.
