MELBOURNE, 19 March 2021: The elder sister is forced to go back to her parents’ (not alive) home after ten years. Her younger sister (single) with a troubled past lives there. The two spend many days rarely talking. The past haunts both of them. The younger one grappling with her own identity crisis is protective of her current status. Director Chittaranjan Giri skillfully interweaves their personalities hungry for relief. Space opens up as life moves step by step. The film’s slow pace is realistic. Emotions, circumstances, and moods merge for reconciliation. The movie is a telling tale of silence culminating into life.
