thriller · Short Films · bengali

The film opens at a moment of high tension - the final rehearsals of a play are being conducted and nothing seems to be going right. However, this will soon turn out to be the least of the crew's problems once the film reveals its plot - an attempted molestation, a violent death and a woman's temporary loss of memory. The last detail is more crucial than the rest for she is the only one who knows what truly unfolded in those few moments leading up to her co-star's death.

The film continues to come into its own gradually, the drama, mystery and suspense that goes behind the curtains of this production, as the title of the film also suggests, forming its body. As a strong-headed cop takes over the case, she continues to engage with one detail after another, trying to get to the bottom of things, especially when nothing seems to be in synchronisation with the predominant narrative being shared by those involved in the accident.

When the story finally reveals its true intentions, the twist would be more than a single motive that caused the chaos.
