"The show happened during Midsummer with the band playing in a white-walled room with two windows behind them looking over the valley.I had no lights on in the venue. As they played, the sun slowly set behind the venue so by the end of their set they were but shadows in the twilight. It was no ordinary show, it was something else in every possible meaning of the phrase."

'Mod' is an attempt by the filmmaker at communicating with the young men who hang out at the ‘notorious’ water tank in her neighbourhood in Pratap Vihar, Ghaziabad. The water tank is a space that is frequented by the so-called ‘no-gooders’ of the locality, a place where they play cricket, play cards, drink and smoke up. When she enters the space with her camera, the boys are curious and at the same time wary of it and her. They sometimes resist, sometimes protest, and at times, open up. As the film unfolds we get a hint of the lives the boys lead and the fragile world they create for themselves at the water tank.
