Synopsis
Walking on fire, conjuring powerful medicines and materialising objects from thin air – can the godmen of India really perform such miracles? The Rationalists are a group of activists determined to make superstition and witchcraft disappear in a cloud of smoke. They intend to use scientific fact to expose the holy men as charlatans who prey on the weak-minded.
Equinox follows the Rationalists on their mission across India, as they explain to people how it is possible to perform feats such as eating fire without being familiar with magic. They also confront the ‘miracle’ workers, challenging them to prove they are not tricking the unsuspecting public. With even some politicians supporting the godmen, education will not be easy, as the Rationalists discover.
