STRANGERS

Story

Synopsis

our strangers enter into a dialogue and draw an intimate portrait of society in turbulent times. The rural worker Jiaul, the Bihari brahmin Ram, the homeless drug-dealer Manoj and the young student Tashi live in the same city of Kolkata, but in different worlds. The film tried to find out a few answers - What beliefs rule their everyday lives? How are they affected by the sudden demonetisation? What makes them strangers? And how do people – whose paths would never cross in real life – interact in a cinematic space, where as many signs of their belonging as possible have been ‘stripped off’ and they encounter one another for the first time?
