All We Imagine as Light
Prabha è un’infermiera nel reparto ginecologico di un caotico ospedale di Mumbai. Tramite un matrimonio combinato ha sposato senza conoscerlo un uomo che subito dopo si è trasferito in Germania, senza farsi praticamente più sentire. La donna divide un micro appartamento con un’infermiera più giovane, Anu, che è innamorata di Shiaz, un ragazzo musulmano inaccettabile agli occhi della sua famiglia indù. Tra le due nascerà un rapporto speciale.

All We Imagine as Light is a very gentle and tender movie, taking a ton of care to portray both of its protagonists as their differing personalities try to navigate the same demands Indian society places on them. This is coupled with a soothing and melodic soundtrack and glowing cinematography, a type of intentionality and creative vision that you typically do not see from Indian movies. While it's certainly a beautiful movie filled with a crafted aesthethic and vibe, the story didn't resonate as much with me on an emotional level. I think it's a fairly simple concept, and while it showcases life in Mumbai, it doesn't necessarily develop the type of insight I was expecting. Definitely worth watching though, and I hope Indian movies look at this movie for inspiration on how to evolve beyond the typical Bollywood formula.
