"Songs of the Djinns" is a fairy tale about magic. On New Year's Eve two actresses wander the streets of Varanasi. Meanwhile, in Goa, preparations are underway for a musical event featuring pop stars. One day, they will all find themselves on a ship, taking turns telling their stories. The ship will sail down a quiet river, and on the shore, everyone will be listening in carefully: bats in ruined palaces, wandering conjurers, and touring DJs. They need to hear the singing of the djinns.
