Trivia
The film is based on a real guest house in Varanasi, India called Kashi Labh Mukti Bhavan. Over 14,000 guests have died there since it was established in 1958. The guests, who are mostly elderly and failing in health, are permitted to stay for two weeks. If they have not died by then, they are asked to check out to make room for others waiting. Dying in Varanasi is believed by Hindus to help the soul break out of the endless cycle of birth and death.

A journey to achieve a death with dignity

The young director Shubhashish Bhutiani (26) takes on the hard topic of death with this movie and the conflict that arises once the dilemma between a death in dignity and the everyday life arises.

An old man feels like his time has come and wants to depart from life in a way, that suits him. This of course causes quite a fuss within the family and the lack of understanding of a few other people is unsettling but understanding as well. Palomi Ghosh who plays the daughter is just stunning! You will probably see more of her very soon.

The only negative thing I can say about the movie is, that Hindi seems to bee a pretty fast language, so the subtitles are actually not on screen long enough on a few occasions and also the translation does not seem to be spot on. Luckily the director could clarify my questions in the Q&A after the movie and he said that I'm not the first one who asked these. So bare that in mind, that the translation can cause confusion.

Anyway... Watch out for more from this director!
