“A Dance Instructor for Sleepwalkers” is a multifaceted, devoid of usual reverence, a work about the bonds of love, hope and the power of reconciliation with the unpredictability of life. The famous neurosurgeon Thomas Eapen has a habit of sitting on the porch and talking with deceased relatives. At least, that's what his wife Kamala, who is prone to exaggeration, says. She tells their daughter Amina about this. Amina is not eager to return to her home, but she returns. It turns out that her mother told her the “lite” version of what is happening here. Everything is much more complicated and confusing. The events have their roots in a trip to India made by family members twenty years ago. Attempts to get an explanation from the father yield nothing. Thomas refuses to talk to his daughter. And then Amina discovers mysterious objects buried in her mother’s garden. She soon realizes that the only way to help her father is to come to terms with her family's painful past. But first she will have to establish relationships with the ghosts that torment all members of the Epen family... For the first time in Russian!
