Shot during the world's largest pilgrim festival, the Kumbh Mela, in Haridwar northern India, the film tells the stories of people and their relation with the holy river Ganges. Pilgrims, ascetics, yogis, western emigrants, scientists and environment activists report from their life on the holy river, their belief, the future of the Ganga and the importance of Amrit – the nectar of immortality. But what is Amrit? Is it a mysterious drink? The holy water of Ganges? Or rather an inner way to the immortality of the soul?
