Synopsis:

Imagine loving someone your whole life and when they’re gone, you’re not allowed to say goodbye.

This tender short follows a young girl as she navigates the loss of her grandfather. In trying to make sense of his absence, she must also confront a world that decides how, and if, she gets to grieve.

In a system that structures and genders grief, Kalki is a film about a young girl who is navigating the loss of her grandfather.
