Hi There is lots to share. But first the synopsis of the short fiction film I will soon be completing.

Its titled as " Eshti" currupted pronounciation of the short form " S.T" (state transport)

"At times I reach
'times I am on the way
'times i dont know which way'

Three individuals, of different age group -  travel – and this journey revels their fears. A mother fears that her son might not come to receive her at the bus stand. A just married young girl fears her husband who has got down of the bus might not return and a small child wonders if the drunk man, known as his father, would take him back home.

What happens in those moments when the faith dwindles? What happens in those moments when uncertainties grip ones mind? What are those moments when relationships make us helpless? Why the relationships – of blood or of bond make us doubt?

 It’s a trilogy.

The first film brings forward the apprehensions of a old women, travelling alone by bus, to meet her son. From whether she has boarded the right bus to whether her son would to come  pick her up or not, the film explores her anxiety and how she tries to fight her own doubts.

The second film is about a young girl, just married and travelling for the first time with her husband. The husband gets down at one of the stops, saying he would be back. The bus is about to leave and the husband is not back. The fear that the young girl experiences till the husband returns is what this film is about.

To top it he is beaten up and abused The child stands crying, seeing his father being humiliated. The last bus comes. Child tries to pull his father to the bus. Runs around to stop the bus.
