In a graveyard outside of Old Delhi, a resident unrolls a threadbare Persian carpet. In a second-floor apartment, a lone woman chain-smokes as she reads through her old notebooks. At the Jannat Guest House, two people who have known each other all their lives sleep with their arms wrapped around each other, as though they have just met.
