Abhirup Halder grew up in Kolkata, India. In his formative years, he got swept away by the strength of Cinema as a medium, and has been trying to dissect the craft ever since. He got exposed to Cinematography and Editing while making curriculum films at his institute. He further honed his skills by collaborating with various artists and documented diverse theater & performing arts projects. Gradually shifting from cinematography he moved on to concentrate on editing and direction. In 2018, he collaborated to make his first feature film (Khyapa) where he worked as associate director, cinematographer & editor.
Raunaq Das, born and brought up in Kolkata, deviated from his
science stream after higher education. Starting off as a writer and director of fictions, he developed interest in documentaries. Since then he has been editing documentaries and writing scripts for various directors. Due to budget constraints he has learnt to create production value with minimal equipment & resources. He has managed to build a basic skill set in almost all departments including sound and production which makes a very indispensable crew member.
Ellipsis is a short film which takes a dip into the subconscious musings of a couple struggling to co-exist with each other.
It is an experimental attempt at dismantling our general dopamine seeking attitude towards companionship
and our hope of finding solutions of all our suffering in another mortal being.
