Long, uncut shots take us into the world of ‘Tamashbeen’. It opens on a lighthearted note where a man shares a tale of a childhood infatuation that ends in tragedy as adults take charge of this reverie.
The physical space remains fixed, marked by clutter and a sense of something unsettling about to make its presence felt, even if the narration presented by the protagonist, the film’s sole character, remains easy and swift flowing. Once again he takes us into his tryst with romance, only to be met with a similar fate before hope could spread its wings any wider.
The performance remains the strongest force of the narrative, constantly pushing it forth, along with camerawork and the surroundings to complement it all. As the conclusion arrives, the film’s title too is realized, ensuring that the story of the man who has continued talking to his reflection all along stays with you long after you are done watching it.
