Netflix
has
unveiled
the
trailer
of
Arati
Kadav's
upcoming
science
fiction
film
titled,
Cargo.
Starring
Vikrant
Massey
and
Shweta
Tripathi,
the
film
attempts
to
bring
together
mythology
with
modern-day
science.
The
movie
uses
human's
approach
towards
complex
philosophical
questions,
and
how
reincarnation
can
be
perceived
in
modern
times.
The
trailer
shows
Massey
playing
Prahastha,
a
rakshasa
(a
demon)
doing
a
desk
job
as
he
accepts
people's
souls
before
sending
them
back
again.
The
trailer
shows
Massey
explaining
the
job
called
as
'Post-Death
Transition
Serves'.
He
then
can
be
seen
uploading
cargo,
aka
dead
people
and
then
recycling
them
back
to
a
new
life,
which
means
healing
them
of
their
mortal
wounds
and
diseases
and
erasing
their
memory
before
sending
them
back.
Meanwhile,
Tripathi's
character,
Yuvishka
Shekhar,
is
Prahastha's
new
assistant.
On
arrival
she
slowly
changes
his
mundane
and
slow
lonely
life
into
something
more.
She
can
be
seen
asking
many
questions
on
arrival.
She
asks,
"Do
people's
stories,
die
with
them?"
The
film's
synopsis
reads,
"The
Rakshasas
may
have
traded
gadas
and
horns
for
touchpads
and
spaceships,
but
the
ultimate
question
remains
the
same
-
what
happens
after
death?
Prahastha,
a
rakshasa,
knows
the
answer.
He
'recycles'
people
after
death.
But
will
his
everyday
'desk
job'
help
him
understand
an
even
more
important
question
-
the
meaning
of
life?"
Written
and
directed
by
Arati
Kadav,
Cargo
begins
streaming
on
Netflix
from
September
9.
