Synopsis

A university student in India writes letters to her estranged lover while he is away. Through these letters, we get a glimpse into the drastic changes taking place around her. Merging reality with fiction, dreams, memories, fantasies and anxieties, an amorphous narrative unfolds.

Our take

An epistolary romance nestles at the center of Payal Kapadia’s award-winning hybrid documentary, a poetic and thought-provoking chronicle of student unrest amid the chaos of Modi’s India. This haptic, flickering love letter to cinephilia simmers with the urgency of revolution.
