Synopsis

Such a Lot of World takes place in modern India, where three recent graduates – Avraan, Ilona and Laks – share an apartment in South Delhi, each of them grappling with the challenge of leading life on their own terms. Avraan has an MBA from India’s best business school but works for a non-profit that educates street kids; Ilona restlessly and relentlessly seeks the job and man who makes her whole; Laks is a reverse-migrating Indian-American entrepreneur who launches a café in Central Delhi. Yet, each also deals with the same questions people in their 20s face everywhere in the world. Set in New Delhi, the story moves through Varanasi, Khajuraho, Amritsar, and parts of rural India. This is ultimately a story about India and where it’s going in the early years of the 21st century.
