A Sky That's Ever Falling Down

Niyor, a photographer, and his pregnant wife Upatyaka live a quiet life, filled with distance and unspoken tension. While Niyor is focused on his artistic pursuits, Upatyaka struggles with sleepless nights and haunting dreams. As their emotional disconnect deepens, tender yet painful memories bring unexpected traumas to the surface—both physical and emotional. One night, under a new moon, Upatyaka stands alone and takes a call that hints at a decisive moment, leaving their future hanging in silence.

Director Statement

Through this film, I wanted to reflect on love suspended in silence and quiet moments. Distance and emotional baggage aren’t always spoken aloud—they emerge through spaces, gestures, and symbolic representations. I wanted to explore dreamlike montages that evoke passion and sculpt nostalgia. The film moves through spaces where colour seeps through light and shadow, and time blurs memory and the present. Like many stories in life, it doesn’t resolve; it simply observes the remains. What lingers and still aches beneath the surface
