Quarantine Recommendation 3
Aamis (Assamese) - Rightly as Anurag Kashyap said, Nothing like this has ever come out of India!
Spoilers Ahead!
Remember the scene in Jallikattu where Kuttachan tells his assistant that the tastiest meat in the world is human flesh. What if someone else too had a similar thought? A movie that shows the relationship between a young PHD student and a middle-aged doctor whose husband is always out of town, this one could have easily been in the erotic mood but but the director literally had different ideas.
The plot from just an attraction at the start transforms into a whole different level. when the hero said I am gonna make her eat my flesh after dreaming of her, I thought it was going into that erotic mood but how far they go to feed their desire is so disturbing.
Lima das the lady with bluish eyes is the best part of this movie and her acting and her reactions gave so much depth. Agardeep Baruva also has given a brilliant performance and it's the performance of these two newcomers that gives the movie the much needed high.
And So after Rima Das who bowled me over with Village Rockstars and Bulbul can Sing, Bhaskar Hasarika is the next director whose work I look forward to in Assamese cinema.
Aamis is love at its darkest avatar. It will make you love, it will make you hungry, it will make you lose your appetite, it will make you freeze.
Dark, intriguing, poetic, layered, intense, horrifying and dangerously beautiful Aamis could have given a tough competition to Parasite for best Foreign film if it had been properly marketed and sent to the Oscars instead of Gullyboy.
Streaming now in Moviesaints, watch this at your own risk.
