The air is heavy with anticipation as an entire country awaits their lifeblood – the inundating rains of the Monsoon. After months of sweltering heat it arrives with lightening, thunder, storm-force winds and heavy, warm rain. Beginning in the village of Trivandrum, the Monsoon runs its jagged course through India, affecting a variety of cultures and tripping a waterfall of celebrations. Follow the path of the legendary Monsoon. Join in the celebrations at the coming rains and share the relief when the deluge turns fears of drought into shouts of joy. The songs, thoughts, laughter and tears of India are all guided by the life-giving force of the Monsoon. As seen on ABC. Narrated by Richard Crenna.
