Punjabi music
is traced in a surreal room from old folk to skyscraper Bhangra.
A tiny man
sleeping in an alcove of a room wakes up to the strains of old
punjabi folk music. He floats down to the floor and witnesses
the spatio-temporal changes happening outside his room through
an opening in the wall and a door. These changes are accompanied
by the evolution of punjabi music and his own stature where he
gets uncomfortably large in his tiny room.
