The film offers a very unabashed, direct glimpse into the extremely patriarchal world women inhabit, and the subsequent sexism they have to deal with on a daily basis. It presents the many statements that are made in the context of women’s safety, and then goes ahead to display the absurdity of it all. <br><br>

The ensuing narrative questions the location of men in a society that refuses to hold them accountable, simply putting all checks and balances on women, instead of looking for corrective measures for the problem itself. The characters played by the various actors are convincing, and even though the narrative is direct and simple, not venturing into the space of nuance and grey territories, it achieves precisely what it has set out to do - raise awareness and draw attention to a compelling issue.


Nazarbattu | Short Film Nominee

The short film blurs the lines between fact and fiction to put forth a narrative that makes the viewer question its true nature. Posited as an homage to a photographer whose life was cut short too soon due to a terminal illness, it presents the audience with the experiences of the different actors and professionals who worked with him, and how he came to influence their careers in a significant manner. <br><br> Along with celebrating the life of Durjoy Ray, the film also endeavours to exhibit poetry and an insight on life's journey that eventually concludes with death. The final product is a sincere, dedicated attempt that wants to be a poignant narrative about what someone leaves behind in the wake of their absence.
