About the Film: A story about love, ageing and a couple's shared plea for the right to die with dignity.
"This film began with the story of my mother. A fiercely independent woman, she was shattered with the news of not being able to drive. She began to talk about dying with dignity and like any daughter I glossed over it. A year later she passed away. Sometimes love is not enough. Months later, I read a news story about this couple’s appeal for the right to die with dignity. I met them to get closure for my mother’s death. I stayed back to film them over four years, in their micro universe - 53 years together, in a 10ftx10ft partitioned room, within a 100-year-old Mumbai chawl...Ira and Narayan’s inner and emotional spaces were revealed through their memories, their fears, their quarrels, their wry humorous perspectives, their silences." [Directors' statement]
