lots and lots and LOTSSSS of love Payal Kapadia 🧡

i've till now seen 3 films of Payal and coincidentally in all of them how yearning for love is one of the major force that drives the story but how hauntingly beautiful!!!! 😩

also you can't help but praise Payal's knack in not loosing the fulcrum of the film.. it never looses the touch that this entire film is infact an unsent love letter of one desolate lover to another. In between the letters she complains her lover's hypocrisy & spineless behaviour

"Fishes don't have vocal chords, that's why nobody questions fishing.
Art, literature & poetry are the vocal chords of the society...
and your silence is their tranquility"
-Javed Akhtar

for people who choose to stay silent that might not help the oppresor but definitely doesn't help the oppressed

It cogitates you to think how easy, blessed life some of us have got and how easy it is to sit at home... blinding ourselves to a side of some very real sight of the world we are part of.

It rouses you to the edge of your seat how a life of someone is so acutely affected being a part of something that's so important, it's a right, but still somehow stripped off from you due to very severe and hyper political incorrection and fascism.

few letters of a girl was found in her hostel room along with her other belongings. Yearning in love, vulnerable & in disdain with her estranged lover journaling her life sans him. this documentary film is her literal brain-dumping... as if it's her only coping mechanism
