**A realistic tour in the life of a Sugar cutter.**
Presenting something in it's true form in an effortless way is the director's USP. 20 minutes of the short film will give you a true to life representation of a sugar-cutter. Director Mr. Santosh Ram has successfully touched various underlying issues in the film while having a strong hold on the main issue, i.e. Education. the story-telling and flow of the film is such that it feels like you are there with Ganga looking at her while she lives her routine. I would like to appreciate Arjun Balakrishnan for achieving that subtle tone and lighting which make the visuals more life-like. Anjali and her son has done commendable acting. The Poem written and sung by Pooja helps you connect with the struggle of a sugar cutter. Overall the short film will give you social message and also it will make you question yourself about overall film-making if you are in the business.
Very realistic and inspiring film.
