Religious boundaries are not necessarily as sharp and antagonistic as the news media lead us to believe. This film presents the everyday life inside and around a Kali temple in the city of Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh in India. A priest and three devotees show why this temple is so important to them. Yet they also occasionally visit holy places of other religious traditions. The film is thus a silent critique against the obsession with religious conflict in contemporary debates. God is one, the religions are made by humans, as the priest concludes in the film.
