Dirty Harry meets Run Lola Run in writer/director Amit Kumar's kinetic, bracingly ambitious debut feature.
On the mean streets of Mumbai, idealistic rookie cop Adi finds himself trapped between the ethical murk of his trigger-happy boss Khan and the menace of local gang executioner Shiva. Given an opportunity to gun down Shiva in cold blood, Adi hesitates for a single second ... but that might be enough time for everything to change.
Three choices, three consequences, three parallel timelines unfolding side by side - it's an ethical quandary masquerading as action-packed noir and quite possibly the most high-octane film at this year's MIFF.
"A racy mash-up of Tarantino-esque ultra-violence and gritty-but-hip contemporary Indian action ... maintains a continual element of surprise while elaborating on the seamy underbelly of Mumbai society." - Variety
