Director Statement

After having seen few instances of dementia and alzheimer's cases in the family, I started wonder the changing dynamics of relationships as memory fades. The memory for the dementia patients starts to act as non linear passage of time where the past events might seem as present and the present might not exist.
The film,'The Review 'is a family drama where the protagonist tries to cope with such non linear passage of time and how it makes an impact on his family members.
