N1  - As the supermoon ascended the skies that night, the haunting call of the hornbill echoed through the forest, a harbinger of evil lurking in the shadows.

In the remote hills of Nagaland where ancient traditions meet modern life, the decapitation of a young photojournalist Tanya Singh during the Hornbill Festival shakes the quiet town of Kohima. Inspector John Angami, a seasoned but disillusioned officer, sets out on a dangerous chase.

The investigation takes him into the tumultuous lives of the victim, five potential suspects, and the surreal Khanabadosh, the supernatural warriors of justice. As he delves deeper, Inspector Angami is forced to tread the boundaries between reality and the occult.

With both national and international pressure mounting, Tanya’s murder investigation blows the lid off political maleficence, personal tragedies and a humanitarian crisis that trigger a chain of events.
