The music room

Three prolonged set of performances from three different groups of musicians, and a rather minimalist and 'static' narrative in-between. The Music Room wants the audience to sit down quietly, like those at those performances, to experience how the protagonist felt before and after those highlights of his existence. Not much drama, but a lot of minute observations, and the camera stayed, except at the last scene, within the compound of the crumbling mansion that had hosted several generations of good life.

A very confident work. An ode to Indian music and dance.
