Simple yet powerfully moving. Beautifully photographed and acted.

This is quite a well made film, about an Indian soldier with a crisis of conscience. It features surprisingly little in the way of dialogue and action, although what there is, is quite impactful, if you know what I mean.

It features surprisingly little in the way of dialogue and action, although what there is, is quite impactful, if you know what I mean. There are some nice landscape shots of the locations and I thought Irrfan Khan gave a particularly good performance as the titular character. This is a thoughtful film, not perhaps one of the most memorable per se but a good example of this sort of film, I feel, though I was a bit frustrated that it ended quickly and I'm not entirely sure quite what to make of what happened...I suppose its one of those films where the viewer is left to decide for themselves, which may frustrate some people, like me. It's a good film in some respects but certainly not great. If it sounds particularly interesting then it's probably worth looking at, though, yes. Expand
