In a daze after watching #Aamis. Mind-numbing, heart-wrenching, spine-chilling. It takes you to a psychological space where cinema, in any language, seldom takes you. Nothing like this has come out from Indian cinema in a long time. There are films that you watch and consume, this film first watches you and then consumes you, sinew by sinew, tissue by tissue, fibre by fibre. With its metaphors, its simplicity, its incision with a surgeon-like precision. If the taste or flavour of a film can be likened to meat, this film would be as impossible to achieve as probably unicorn steak. But Bhaskar HaZarika conjures it up easily with moments which make you wince and pine, squeal and love at the same time. And delivers a film, both rare and very well-done.
I could go on. But for now, catch possibly the second last or last show in Kolkata at 5 35 pm at Lake Mall Cinepolis tomorrow or day after.
