Laghushanka

SonyLiv

Short film, 14 minutes

*ing: Sanjay Mishra, Raghav Juyal, Abhishek Chauhan

Rated: 8/10

The thing about short films is that they are fully loaded second to second to tell a story. In this format the story has to be short but have the potential of leaving a long term impact.  Stunning climax, an ending you may not have fathomed, and every frame meant to tell the story, or should one say race to finish the story because the director has just 14 minutes to leave a nark on you.

Laghushanka is of that potent, telling and interesting category. It deals with the issue of bedwetting by an adult girl who has a marriage staring down her face, a hysterical family and the prospect of it coming out in the open in her sasural.

The film has been treated with a lot of acumen, tender loving care and slick production which keeps you hooked from the beginning to the end.

It also delivers a powerful message on human weakness and ailments that are often treated with insensitivity and indifference.

This head turner film is neither insensitive nor indifferent to the issue it has at and must watch.The thing about short films is that they are fully loaded second to second to tell a story.
