The film Beware Dogs captures two days in the life of four eclectic musicians and their struggle to create music. Across the city, in a house dating back to a Delhi long forgotten, four musicians have a song to weave. Indian Ocean, as the band is called, is a bit of the modern city in itself. They draw myriad folk & local traditions fusing them with the sound of the contemporary, creating music, which is diasporic.
