Panaji, Nov 25 (UNI) Arjun Dutta, director of Bengali film Abyakto, has said that his transition from a short film to a feature film maker was the most enriching experience of his life.
Addressing a press conference at the 49th International Film Festival of India (IFFI) here in the city on Saturday, he said, “Though the canvas of feature film is larger, the basic things remain the same. The home work and pre-production should be very strong. We need to be honest towards any film we make, be it the short film or the feature film. The approach towards both should be the same.”
Abyakto is a poignant tale of a mother and her son, Indra. The film captures a series of unexplained and unusual events which turn Indra into a man he never thought he would become. These events unfold through the film’s three most integral characters: Indra’s mother, Indra’s father, and his favourite uncle Rudra. The film travels through various time lapses and captures the stirring and inexplicable situations and the intricacies and complexities of various relationships.
