TIME AND THE HOUR RUN Reformer Films- super 16mm short Samir Patel, Director                                         Derek Tindall, Director of Photography

The story of an Indian immigrant in rural USA, who is faced with the death of his wife and his struggle to find the purpose of his life's journey before his maddening grief gets the best of him.
