Dhuin
Streaming video - 2022
From Achal Mishra, director of The Village House (Gamak ghar), DHUIN is a stunning, novella-length portrait of a 25-year old street theatre actor (Abhinav Jha, in a breakout performance) who is desperate to leave his rural hometown of Darbhanga for Mumbai, but finds himself trapped by family obligations, lack of experience and connections, and the all-enveloping fog of living. Like the films of Abbas Kiarostami (who is referenced several times here) and Hou Hsiao-Hsien, DHUIN is a truly remarkable essay on the in-between moments of life that define us, the tiny embarrassments and silences and confusions, the gray membrane of existence that restrains and binds us together. Along with The Village House, DHUIN firmly establishes Mishra as one ...of the most perceptive and creative new voices in independent Indian cinema.
