This brilliantly animated short movie succinctly captures the emotion and life after death. The son has much generation gap from his parents which gets more evident with his lack of interest in the death ceremony and the rituals that a son must follow. He is also skeptical of the order and customs surrounding death. The son is in deep remorse and has vicarious experiences of the pain his father had to suffer in his very last days. He is also miffed other people's lack of empathy as their thoughts are more into the rituals and formalities of the event. The movie goes on to show that life moves on once you're dead and what will remain of you are just your bones in the incinerator.
Sarthak Singal most apt description of the story.
Somewhere it matched to my pain of losing my papa ,turn of events ,,to this day till my last day ,,n may be on my last day I will see him smiling.. holding my hand ,ruffling my hair n taking me along..miss u papa..
Bhai 😭 I can feel you
We need feature films of this kind(the type of animation used). Indian audience and movie makers have to upgrade themselves and diversify movies and genres .
We are making it.. It will be out by july
@@greymatter1476 is it out yet?
@@ominous_melody2251 Casting is over and the production work has started. We started in lockdown and will be end by 1st week of December
@@greymatter1476 has it finished?
@@greymatter1476 if still not finished, at least suggest me any other
The animation and art work is just fabulous.... More movies like this should be made!!!
_Losing my papa half a decade ago, I feel I can relate to the story like no one other, and thus being my personal favorite short film, I insist that I make my significance in this comment section_
My POV about this cunningly executed film, that you might have missed()
#1) *Babu loves his father* :
The most obvious deduction one can draw
*Proof
0:41 : Babu wants to be with his dad at his end.
1:23 : Insists his father's name to be spoken appropriately
3:31 : That delay!
5:00 : No caption needed
8:15 : that flashback in Babu subconscious mind
#2) *Babu is an atheist* :
Maybe he is too young for this or is just upset from God that He snatched Babu's father from him, yet, he reluctantly performs each ritual for the sake of his helpless mom and dead father.
_whole film is its proof_
#3) *Responsiblity* :
To be honest, this whole film is all about the responsibility enforced into Babu after his dad's death, making his age gap (from his dad) and atheistic even worse.
Responsiblities entitled to Babu:
2:25
4:36
5:28
8:41 : The pension scene is so cleverly overwhelmed. That's a son's duty now on!
#4) *Irritated by hypocrite people around him* :
No person was captured compensating Babu for his loss, everyone seemed to be proclaimed by rituals, kriyas.
*proof*
This fact can easily be verified by deciphering the scene 2:09 to 2:29
*Life moves ON* :
despite all the affection for his father, he knew he has to move.
-Spicing agents in film-
# Messages scene at 7:43 :
Those messages can be read and
illustrated as :
Babu has a job in Bombay, to which he has to return ASAP. So this point can be added to "Responsibility" and "life moves on".
Furthermore, him ignoring all messages, can be decoded as " more responsibilities awaits"
Animation : I don't think I would have enjoyed it even half of this if it were not animated
I have an elder brother, who is literally BABU after my dad's death.
He grew me up. Now I know how he must be feeling
I don't know how to thank the creators
A day will come when we will all experience this first hand(if we haven't already). All the fathers of the world that ever lived have all died or will soon die. Ordinary sorrows that we cannot escape. When I was a kid, I would sometimes have bad thoughts about my parents that'd freak me out. You took me back to that place..
Great film..thank you.
HAD THAT ISSUE AS WELL.. WELL STILL HAVE IT ACTIVELY EVEN NOW. HATE IT WHEN DAT HAPPENS HATE IT WHEN MY MIND DOES DAT .. ITS SUCHH BULLSHIT !!!!!
मेरे दादाजी की अंत्येष्टि याद आ गई मेरी आँखों के सामने. इसे देखते हुए मेरी आँखें नम थीं. बेहतरीन❤
This is one of the best films from Royal Stag large short films. Hats off. I cannot stop my tears now...OMG give me a handkerchief.
A lot of the time in animation is spent getting the story right - that's something you can't rush - ' Jennifer Yuh Nelson',
That being said, the level of hard work put into it is beyond astonishing
Loved every detail of it. The film feels very personal to director Somnath Pal (Paul), one has to assume this was a cathartic release for him to express his love/hate relationship with specific personal attachments. Sound Design is just exceptional. The film overall gave me vibes of European, Japanese, Iranian and Independent Indian Cinema, which is a positive factor. Truly Inspiring.
really impressed by the work of art. never thought animation of this level(so detailed and expressive) is possible in india. i think even mr. miyazaki would appreciate this.the ending could be improved upon, perhaps.
This is absolutely BRILLIANT!! The animation, the screenplay, the dialogues (so real, so day to day, no additional drama), and the Story! Amazing!! This is so mundane on the first look, but so hardly it hits on your heart. While in our day-to-day lives we are so damn busy in judging others; stories like these compel us to wait for a moment, and judge ourselves!!
Thanks a lot to makers and thank you for the upload.
Loads of best wishes for your future endeavors 🙂
The movie is nice but it could have been better. What a sarcasm in my life when i watched it's trailer after a week on 1st November my father had passed away. Done all the rituals. Seen a person to die slowly infront of my eyes helplessly. Carried his coffin on flight which he was supposed to be beside us but he was traveling with us but not besides us. Somewhere in the dark chamber of the cargo he was sleeping and locked in the closest chamber. After landing went to the cargo with the papers in hand to take my father no his human remains. Now in the coffin it was labelled now Late before his name.Signed off all the formalities and now pushing the trolley with his coffin to the hearse van and put him up. On the glass box..sliently in the mid night he is travelling towards his home all alone sleeping in the deep slumber. Reaching home everyone was there to meet him for the last time to bid adieu. Now his last wish to enter his home is fulfilling but he can't feel his home. His coffin wrapped with cellophane and locked with screws is being opened in the drawing room where he used to spend most of his time of the day. But this time he is not sitting in his chair but sleeping in the coffin. Now his last journey from his home has started to the final destination for cremation. In the crematorium. All wearables were removed. Me and maa for the last time help him in the task which he used to find it difficult for sometime.Now oiled him with ghee and fed him last food into his mouth. I kissed him in his forehead for the last time and touched his feet to bid adieu forever. Took him near the burning chamber and then slowly pushed him in the fire while he was in deep slumber. Now the door of the chimney is falling down and slowly he disappeared infront of us forever... Helplessly we all were standing and seeing him disappear in the burning closet....after about 50 mins we handed over with his ashes. My father to whom I will not be able call him baba again..
I can feel you brother. Have gone through this 6 years back.
Hi Arka, thanks for sharing your story. May your father rest in peace.
This is exactly what i went through and much much more 2 weeks back; same generation gap, same pointless rituals, same lack of empathy and hurriedness to perform the rites, same disregard to take a few moments to really mourn the loss, same extended care-taking and yet wasting away of the body, same unnatural formalities of human existence. I can't believe Chaitanya Tamhane and Somnath Paul made a movie about it in 2017. Goes on to show how common it is for the society at large to disregard true feelings and perform a role-play ritual of life and even death when nothing remains.
yeah man.. these guys are genius
I am greatly moved by this. Thank you everyone who worked on this. This film will stay with me.
I never comment on any video in my life but this video is so close to my heart, i was in Canada when my dad get sick and he died in my laps, i can fell the pain my dad been through and only you and you're bloodline fell that for another relatives and people it's an another death but great job for creating a wonderful memory back it's almost 5 years but feels like it happened yesterday.
Impeccable. Didn't want it to end. From story to the screenplay and even the little sounds it had, was just brilliant. Not to forget the awesome animation.
I just can't write enough about the execution of this film,it completely meets the international standards it's simply superb,the essence of probashi Bengali is captured beautifully,we need many more such films,and please send this for awards
Brilliant work done! 💯 Can't even imagine an animated movie with water paintings😍 the story tugs at the heart so beautiful 💓
Ultimate best short film i ever scene .... Character and baground full match and so catching each other .... Fantastic work ... Love it ...
finally the anime i want Indiananime ,thanks a lot man you really inspire to make anime that so real ,great work man
Ami just ure gelam dekhe... osadharon kaaj dada 🙏
Beautiful work of art Somnath Pal. Very poetic, artistic representation of a tragedy and it's aftermath from a day to day life, which otherwise would seem very ordinary in reality. My heartfelt congratulations to you and to all those who stood by you in this endeavor. This work stands as inspiration to many.
every emotion,every single frame of this film is an expression of human behavior for a same incident.
the connecting thread is "common man".
congratulations for such a great effort.
I come back every now and then to admire the animation.
Brilliant story ...outstanding one of the best short story... Good job
Really emotional..
OHH MY GOD A MASTERPIECE SIR !!! WORK OF GENIUS . LOVE YOU FOR MAKING THIS FILM. WISH U THE BEST ALWAYS FOR ALL UR ENDEAVOURS AND THOUGHTS ALWAYS . KUDOS !
Mesmerizing, touching, deep and very well established animated shots. Its fabulous. 👍😊
Simply good. Heart touching story of a father-son relation.
Absolutely stunning storytelling and direction. The animation is mind blowing, it feels so good to see such content coming out! Finally!
What I felt though - was, as much as the story perfectly captures how the son feels remorse and the society cares more about formalities than the loss of the person, somewhere it felt like something is missing in the film. It's probably that in his solitary moments, more grief was expected. I'm not sure if the filmmaker wanted to convey that the son felt remorse, or not, and I think this was crucial to establish in the storyline.
Regardless, beautiful execution, and loved the subtle details like the person recording the death in the van, and him eating food during the funeral. Those details say a lot about our society and our priorities.
Daruuunn...👏👏
Summation of some of the feelings we are hesitant to express to the society, while the never ending flashbacks of our loved one remain with us forever.
Simple story ,no drama , beautiful animation.he was feeling bad about the behaviour of other people but life moves on this way.🙌
One of the best indian animated movie I've seen. Need more like these gems
the level of detailing is awestrucking .......the light & shade the bg layout excellent is just a superlative for this maestro of a film !
Absolutely brilliant work! Loved the visual imagery
Wow such an amazing piece of art..
I salute all the members who made this. Just don't have right words to explain.... Its true. And ee are aware of it in many times but the most critical time is the own.
AWESOME ANIMATION...Quality..nice keep going!!!
So much emotional film. Nice expression of the feeling.
Very intense. Make us think beyond the story. lovely.
Beautiful work. Awesome. Animation, BG layout and screenplay is very impressive.
6:28 The details where the son is shown in the mirror rather than directly focusing on his face is very rare and that too in an animation film. Loved it.💓💓
no doubt
Brilliant! I have never seen any Indian ritual or ceremony animated and executed so well. Great work
Apart from less no of frames at certain points, the animation done is beautiful. (its really important to promote quality animation in India, thanks for doing it).
Apart from that, it feels like a intimate experience has been shared by the makers.
I would like to see in-depth version of it.
I really hope there be some more animations like this one;
Excellent Representation ...! It seems one very personal story but the way it is expressed is Universal... The quality of animation is very impressive.
It really gave the feeling of the realness by keeping the regional language intact in the characters wherever really needed. Very detailed work... Keep evolving... ❤️
Amazing Love This ...

আমি জানিনা এ কথা ঠিক হবে কিনা, কিন্তু চৈতন্য ,এ ছেলে একদিন অস্কার পাবে... এত ঠিক ছবি সচরাচর হয়না, কোনো ভুল ই নেই সব সব ঠিক❤️
Absolutely right sir 👍
khub bhalo hoyechhe Somnath Da
everyone is talking about the amazing artwork done In this short. but personally, the sound design is the best part of this short.
Perfect and sophisticated movie
Animation and background sounds were so clear and attractive .. loved it
The use of graphics make it a excellent short film. Innovative.
The best short film in animation ever made.
Both son and father are disconnected outside of the bond of the father -son. The only intimate moments that the son remembers with him are the ones at the hospital.
Excellent video Animation is superb. All in one hats off to the work
Great animation and story....
Specially the reference to the clock...
Truley loved the animation ....
I am a die hard fan of anime
And was not watching indian animated movies because of same old animating techinique and same ideas(ramayana, mahabharat, hanuman, ganesha, chota bheem(almost all gods))
Finally i got relief that indian made this kind of animation ....... thanku large short films .....
This is absolutely amazing!!!!
Why I'm crying, story is too gud nd related to reality.
very deep indeed and well depicted
Mesmerizing work. More power to the creators.
respect for all of u animators , writers voice actors and everyone else
A piece of art.....
This is hauntingly beautiful.
Wow Indian anime.
Brilliant work done! 💯
