The Burning Canvas

In the fictional state of Kharana, caste riots erupt like wildfire, but a troubled detective discovers the chaos masks a deeper horror: a serial killer who transforms mutilated bodies into macabre artworks. As the detective's obsession with uncovering the truth consumes him, he is drawn into the artist's nihilistic vision, blurring the line between justice and complicity in a narrative steeped in Richard Wright's unflinching psychological naturalism.
