Dans une Inde féodale, l'État de Rajasthan est une région déserte qui est gouvernée par un Seigneur cruel et sadique qui, à l'aide de guerriers sous les ordres de Lafcadia, exerce un régime de terreur sur ceux qui s'opposent à son pouvoir. Lafcadia est récemment devenu veuf ; il a toutefois un enfant, Katiba. Un jour, Katiba se lie d'une profonde amitié avec une jeune fille, qui attache un rakhi à son poignet faisant de lui son frère, en retour, il lui donne son amulette. Quand le seigneur demande à Lafcadia de soumettre les villageois de Tarang à ses ordres, ces derniers préfèrent lui échapper. Après le raid que Lafcadia organise, ses guerriers violent et pillent les villageois ; mais quand Lafcadia aperçoit l'amulette de son fils sur une jeune fille, il lui sauve la vie. Il regrettera alors très profondément d'avoir ravagé le village, et renoncera à son statut pour chercher la paix dans le village de Kullu, dans l'Himalaya. Quand le Seigneur l'apprend, il demande aux guerriers de le pourchasser et de le tuer. Cependant, ils n'y parviennent pas. Aussi, pour satisfaire leur Seigneur, ils tuent un sosie de Lafcadia et amènent sa tête devant le Seigneur. Ils capturent également Katiba, à qui il est demandé d'identifier son père. Devant le Seigneur, il affirmera qu'il s'agit bien de la tête de son père. Alors, il est également tué. Dévasté et sans arme, Lafcadia est seul quand un voleur, Riaz, décide de le suivre. Incapable de le faire fuir, Lafcadia l'ignore. Au cours de leur périple, Riaz en viendra à lui demander si c'est lui qui a tué son père.

Joanna Mills (Sarah Michelle Gellar), a travelling rep for a trucking company, is dedicated to her successful career but something of a loner. Since the age of 11 she has been a troubled person, with episodes of self-mutilation and menacing visions. Normally she avoids returning to her native Texas, but agrees to a trip there to secure an important client. During the trip her visions, which take the form of memories of events not from her life, increase in intensity. She sees a strange face staring back at her in the mirror. Her truck radio plays Patsy Cline's "Sweet Dreams" no matter what station she selects. She stops at the scene of an accident that, on the following day, seems not to have happened. Joanna cuts herself in a bar restroom and is narrowly rescued by a friend. She visits her father, who observes that from age 11 she was "a different girl". The visions continue, becoming both more specific and more threatening, centering upon a menacing man she does not recognize and a bar she has never seen, but a picture of which is in one of her catalogs.

The film opens up with a voiceover of a woman named Saiva telling the listener that a shaman said she was cursed at birth and would bring harm to anyone she cared for. While she and a young woman named Anja are camping in a subarctic region of Siberia, in desperation, she takes one of her sled dogs and slits after calming it, slits it throat, foreshadowing the shaman's prophecy about her birth. She and Anja then set out to relocate their camp. On the way, they almost get caught by Soviet/Russian soldiers. Fearing the worst, Saiva ventures out with Anja into the far north to the arctic tundra, passing abandoned telephone wire trees and to the area where she believes no one would ever find them. After a long paddle north, they pitch camp on a beach, where they set up their yurt.

Dotée d’un talent unique au sein de sa génération, Amy Winehouse a immédiatement capté l’attention du monde entier. Authentique artiste jazz, elle se servait de ses dons pour l’écriture et l’interprétation afin d’analyser ses propres failles. Cette combinaison de sincérité à l’état brut et de talent ont donné vie à certaines des chansons les plus populaires de notre époque. Mais l’attention permanente des médias et une vie personnelle compliquée associées à un succès planétaire et un mode de vie instable ont fait de la vie d’Amy Winehouse un château de cartes à l’équilibre précaire.Le grand public a célébré son immense succès tout en jugeant à la hâte ses faiblesses. Ce talent si salvateur pour elle a fini par être la cause même de sa chute. Avec les propres mots d’Amy Winehouse et des images inédites, Asif Kapadia nous raconte l’histoire de cette incroyable artiste, récompensée par six Grammy Awards.
