Description
In the dense forests of the Eastern Himalayas, moths are whispering something to us. In the dark of night, two curious observers shine a light on this secret universe. Together, they are on an expedition to decode these nocturnal creatures in a remote ecological “hot spot” on the border of India and Bhutan. 

The result is a deeply immersive film that transports audiences to a rarely-seen place and urges us all to look more closely at the hidden interconnections of the natural world.


Reviews
      “Grade: A-. Dazzling! An introspective and captivating documentary. A rich, unexpected experience… Fans of nature-based documentaries like All That Breathes and Fire of Love, will spark to the film, but also anyone looking for a true cinematic escape.” - Indiewire

      “A meditative and beautiful film… but also a call to action, a reminder of the beauty of the world, but also the fragility of it.” - Film Inquiry

      “A sensory immersion.. Nocturnes positions nature as a wonder to behold while reminding viewers that such beauty is fleeting if people don’t recognize the signs for climate change and act soon enough.” - POV Magazine

      “Breathtaking. A ruminative meditation upon their mysteries and their changing environment high in the thick forests of the Eastern Himalayas. An experience to be welcomed.” - Screen
