Island City
The film follows three comic-drama stories set in Mumbai. The first story is about a middle-aged man who wins the office ‘Fun Committee Award’, which gives him a whole day of compulsory fun, much to his reluctance. Prescribed fun modules have to be completed and non-compliance is not an option. The second story begins with a domineering pater familias, Anil, who is on life support. Seeking some relief, his family decides to buy a TV, which Anil had banned. Now every night the family plugs into a popular soap whose hero is a man ideal in every way. The third story centers on Aarti whose repetitive existence is slowly making her mechanical and numb. Deep inside her ferments a disconnect and unease that she is unable to articulate to anyone. Then one day an intimate letter arrives and everything changes.
