Prapthi

By Nithan J Shetty with 6.5

drama · Short Films · kannada

The short film is a well-meaning story about the importance of honing one’s talent and skill with dedication, even if it sometimes means taking a less traditional route. The same idea is pronounced by introducing us to Seena, a boy who skips school in order to work at a local garage. However, this is in direct opposition to her mother’s wishes who would rather have him rise in the world by way of an education.

A daily wage laborer herself, exhaustion and the physical exertion get to her one day, leading to tragedy striking in young Seena’s life. The story, though marked by a little inconsistency in narratorial progression, thus comes into its own, finally making it clear for the viewer what it had set out to achieve with its rags-to-riches plot line.
