In real life, away from this fictive space, the pandemic ensured that this was a year of introspection and mulling over your thoughts. It is in this vein that the sentiment of the film is presented forth. <br><br> Kaash is thoughtful in the way it approaches its subject matter - the idea of desiring something that one does not possess. The camerawork exhibits potential, leaving the door for more such products by the team. Though the visuals are tied with a background score more fitting for an epic fantasy/heroic drama rather than the quiet, calm reflections of the narrative, they still succeed at communicating their message to the audience.

Kaash | 2020 Film Challenge

The film is about poetic reflections of a young boy trying to make space for himself amidst the hustle-bustle of his daily life. The visual narrative is set against a voiceover that takes the viewer into the life of the protagonist. Rihai attempts to be an exploration of his dreams while he also tries to fulfil his duties.<br><br> For fiction to be powerful, it has to be set in reality.

Overall, the product exhibits potential that can be developed in subsequent projects.
