    Unfolds with the serenity of a fable but underneath it draws intelligent, deeply troubled connections between the personal, political, and spiritual.
  2. Strikes several beautiful and lingering chords about the human condition, but the notes of the music ultimately never come together to form a coherent song.

    Brilliant! Very relevant even now, especially in todays political climate. One of the best Bengali language films since Days and Nights in the Forest. I love this film because it felt real and reminds me of stories my dad use to tell me when he as a young student during the sixties in Bangladesh. Expand
