{Alagar Kovil}

In between capturing scenes for our forthcoming documentary, GIVE ME YOUR HUNGRY, our very kind hosts have been spoiling us with visits to Tamil cultural sites within and nearby Madurai, India – in which we have our minds blown daily. We’re on Day 3.

These are scenes form our journey up to a small temple village known as Alagar Kovil. We wound our way up through the Alagar hills to find hundreds of Tamil pilgrims visiting the temple and where a holy spring known as Noopurangangai is perennially sprouting up at the top of the hillock. To the locals, this is a truly holy place. To us, it’s a world we never knew existed.
