synopsis :
Karbhari, the village farmer was all geared up to yield the tubers and payback the money he owed to the local village money lender Sahukar Tatya. One evening coming back from the graze, Chitangya, Karbhari's bull falls into the leopard trap and breaks his hind leg. Unable to stand on its feet and move, it was not possible for Chitangya to plough the fields.
Continual medication and treatment by Karbhari and his wife Anjana could not resurrect Chitangya to employ. This sent shivers in Karbhari as a little delay in reaping would have the buds on the potatoes. Karbhari did not want to penalize himself more from the sahukar. Pandu, a farmer had just committed a suicide two days ago not able to return the money to Sahukar. Why wasn't Rashida's grandmother being sold to the butcher? She too was old and not working. Why were they all taking care of her and not his Chitangya? Chitangya certainly would not depart.
Tingya is a painstakingly meticulous film about an emotional love story between a bull and a boy. It inquires through Tingya's innocence the validity of existence. It queries the order of the alive and breathing. Is it the man, animal, bird and the sea or vice versa? Who regulates and classifies the categories?
