Stories With No Meaning
This is where I post ideas & treatments for short films that I don’t know what to do with.
Feel free to enjoy them, and reach out for a collaboration if you’re interested. Please don’t steal them, you’ll ruin my day.

The Art Of Walking
Vilas, a young construction worker from Mumbai is walking home to his village some 400 kilometers away. Accompanied by three other migrant workers who are also trying to go home, they support each other to survive the extreme climate, hunger and exhaustion of the treacherous expedition. Halfway through his journey Vilas receives the news that his only living relative, his mother, has passed away.

The Old Man Of Sassoon
Aarthi, a young woman living near the docks in Mumbai is angry at her father who set out fishing just before the Covid-19 quarantine began. Her father was supposed to return in a few days, but now a week has passed and Aarthi must find a way to locate and rescue her father while avoiding the police and other fishermen who do not allow women to operate fishing boats.

The Apple Picker's Son
A young boy in Northern India discovers he has telekinetic powers which can move small objects. His father is a migrant worker who travels to Kashmir during the apple-harvest season. Not wanting his father to go Kashmir during this period of great political unrest, the boy tries using his newfound powers to stop him from leaving.

Silence In The Library
Student protesters trapped inside their university library prepare for armed forces to inevitably break through the doors. The film follows two characters on either side of the conflict; the first is a young university student who is disillusioned by the suffering all around him and refuses to take sides. The other protagonist is a young soldier who is ordered to lead the charge against the student protesters and struggles to reconcile his duties with his morality.

Turbulence

The Purple Murder
During a private photo-shoot the model finds out that her husband, the photographer, is cheating on her and murders him with his own camera. To avoid being caught she devises a plan to create the scene of a robbery and uses her false grief and quick thinking to outwit the experienced inspector heading the investigation, while reserving her sensuality and feminine charms to win over the naive constable.

Fire By Dawn
Two soldiers find themselves behind enemy lines with no back-up & must find a way to escape an unforgiving minefield and the quickly approaching enemy.
