Synopsis:
‘Dreaming Young, Dreaming Global’ claims that the new era of liberalization and globalization has provided an equal playing field to the youth across cultures and gender. It presents portraits of a few young Indians from different parts of India. We meet a young journalist in Shillong who set up a band inspired by Bob Dylan and Sting, two women from the North-East who are obsessed with physical training and play football, a young student in Gujarat who earns to contribute towards the cost of her education, a young manager of a fast food store, a group of students preparing for studying abroad, and a group of students in Cherapunji trying to run an enterprise as guides for tourists to ancient archaeological discoveries. The film finds that the young Indians are confident, often rooted in their culture, hardworking, enterprising and dreaming and working towards a future for themselves.
