A Monsoon Date

Konkana Sen Sharma is beautiful in this 20-odd minute short film. Her acting, her expressions, and sometimes lack of it beautifully sum up the character who's happier now but finds herself out of place, rejected and alone.

Gazal Dhaliwal writes a story that cuts deep but the direction, to my untrained arm-chair critic eye, left a bit wanting. All that relative to what you expect from a slow-paced art movie that's romantically set in monsoons. You get my point. But that said, acting and the issue it champions make up for it. Go watch!
