Triggered by the memoirs of a medical missionary on the Afghan borderlands, the film is constructed from archive photographs of colonial life on the North West Frontier of British India at the turn of the 20th century. Searching for clues at the margins of images framed in the midst of resistance to colonial rule, the film plays sound against image and finds striking continuities in British portrayals of a distant place and people.
