BOMBAY 2024
In the year 2024, India is ruled by a totalitarian government. No courts. No freedom. Only fascism. Three individuals come together to express themselves anonymously in the maximum city - which, up until now, was the least radical.

Aettreya Sen is a 25-year-old filmmaker and cinephile based in Mumbai. He works as a script analyst at Saregama India. His short films have received accolades at college festivals and he hopes to make contemporary films that have a direct impact on the youth of the country.
Bombay 2024 is a satirical take on the totalitarian governance. In the film, no direct name calling has been done; no community or religion has been explicitly mentioned. The conversations have been censored to justify the horrors of the milieu. The colour palette chosen is monochrome (black and white) because of the polarised opinions expressed in the film. Ideologies of Left, Right & Center have been personifies through the characters & the framing of the camera. The timeline 2024 is chosen intentionally to magnify the horror of the near future. This is an experimental film.
