Dhakee, from 2009, paints a poignant picture of rural life through the lens of a drummer, whose rhythms echo the struggles of his family. The pacing feels almost reflective, allowing you to linger on the quiet moments that build up to the urgency of his daughter's illness. The contrast between the serene countryside and the bustling city during Durga Puja adds layers to the narrative, making you ponder the sacrifices one makes for family. Performances are earnest, especially the lead, who embodies the desperation and hope of a parent trying to bridge two worlds. The use of practical effects during the ceremonies feels grounded, enhancing the authenticity of the rituals depicted.
