TWO PICTURES
After killing his wife, a man recounts the reasons behind his act, attempting to justify the crime through a carefully constructed narrative. As the story unfolds, the same events are revisited from both the husband's and the wife's perspectives, exposing the contradictions hidden within his account. Drawing on the reinterpretation of Indian mythological narratives, the film examines how stories have historically been shaped to legitimize patriarchal power. By connecting ancient epics with contemporary social realities, it explores the ways narratives are constructed, inherited, and used to silence alternative voices.
Cast: Anushka Chowdhury, Arpan Bhandari
