Nagastyle

Nagnath Kharat / India / 2020 / World Premiere / 93 min.

synopsis

A radical introspection and a film diary that leads us into the heart of a noisy Indian city and of a life stranded in shallow waters. A gifted artist, Nagnath aka Nagastyle, reflects his journey to make his dream come true based on the notes in his diary. His hopes for creative filmmaking are swiftly replaced by endless routines of early mornings, long travel on crowded buses and sitting around in an uninspiring office. The crises becomes a theme, the film becomes perhaps a means of therapy but above all a study of alienation served straight, unfiltered, with complete honesty and mundanity.

„With the help of two friends and sometimes I lonely shot during the work time. Four months' time for shooting and eight months for editing. For me this film like selfie…“ N. Kharat
