Debi, a Bengali short film shows what it is like to celebrate a festival with the family, especially if you live far from home.

Directed by Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury, the film looks at the mother-daughter relationship spanning two generations. The festival of Durga Puja acts as a wonderful backdrop to the story.

The video shows a woman returning home for the festival for the first time since she married a man from a different community against her mother's wishes. After years of estrangement, and her mother's death, she brings her daughter home for her first-ever Durga Puja with family.

The daughter bonds with the family she has met for the first time, but it's clear her mother is still weighed down by the past.

Help comes in the form of grandma's handwritten recipe book. We'll let you watch the video below to see what happens next.
