In the sixties, in Satyajit Ray's "Days and Nights in the Forest", four city bred young men had wandered into the jungles of Palamau for a vacation. In the new millennium, three of them decide to return to the forest on a trip down memory lane "In the Forest. Again". They are now accompanied by their spouses and children. The chosen place for the new trip is different as Ray's Palamau is now considered unsafe for tourists. The three protagonists try to relive the past. The only one who is forced to encounter the unknown is the one who is dying. Yet the unknown continues to intrude through their offspring. Their innocent is holiday in a picturesque setting seems almost unreal, till reality strikes in an unusual way.

"In the Forest Again has compelling performances that linger long after the journey draws to a close." - mybindi.com
