Santosh

Today – Thu 27 Mar

Why watch?

The film is so absorbing that I think I may have forgotten to breathe throughout and shared many of Santosh’s wide-eyed expressions while watching and beyond. It is rich in details and images that will stay with me – like the food put out for Santosh’s husband’s soul in the shradh ritual to bring him peace in the afterlife.
