Largo Film Awards wrote a nice review and a plot summary of ‘Reconnection’.

Film Plot Summary

Reconnection is the story of Sean Fletcher, a Western man whose life was a part of the rat race. He is a slave to his own reflection on the mirror of modern society. When Sean is deserted by his girlfriend, unable to win back her love, he heads to, like many Westerners before him, to India to find himself. The noise and smoke of Delhi does offer a change of scenery yet the real revelation comes with Vrindavan, where Sean will be exposed to a realm that is opposite to the one he is so used to. Through the story of God Krishna and his consort Radha, Sean comes to understand unconditional love, the value of sharing as well as the vainness of his pursuits back in the West. The villagers that surround him, all venerating Radha and using her holy name as a salute, make him feel at home, remind him of the lack of tenderness unto-his-own-self. So do the foreigners/expats who chose Vrindavan as their new home, living a life of service.
