Man’s predicament is the unsatisfactory nature of his desires! Buddha calls it Dukkha! French existentialists try to explain this endless desire by “Horse and Carrot.” In the middle age in Europe the horse cart driver used to fix a carrot just one inch ahead of the horse on the cart. Poor horse thinks that he can catch it by galloping faster but always the carrot is an inch ahead! Poor horse gets at last nothing but frustration and anguish! Buddha advices us to live in the present moment and to enjoy the present instead of going to past or future because only the present exists! Erwin Schrodinger the quantum physicist thus writes:”There is only NOW, this one and immutable NOW, NOW is the only thing that has no end!” Your film is great! Mandawala Hamuduruvo

So very very much said in so short a time frame with a single actor and voice only interlocutors. Very minimalistic and concentrated yet exploring the vast canvas of the protagonist's situation. BRAVO !!!!
We will be doing a sort of a crew appreciation "week" on our social media channels soon! So if you want to see the faces behind the voices and cameras and want to know what they are up to, we would love it if you could join us on FB : facebook.com/theApartment2021 instagram : instagram.com/the.apartment.film/
Extremely well executed plot....very effective and I love how the love in among the three of them(husband,wife,and child) was brought out amidst this life situation.....very touching that was....finally a note from Buddhism 'Thanhaya Jayathi Soko'....'love of material things will always lead to unhappiness'.....thank you for a great production.
You have narrated a story with the visible presence of a single actor which in itself is an achievement..hope to see more stories/movies from you in the future..the end was unpredictable too..Good stuff
Oh.. no... It was so unpredictable! I thought one by one things are getting sorted....but this is what life gives us when we do not know the limit... What dreams that father had in his mind for his little angel but what happened! We always should do the right thing if we really love our family, then only they will be protected,,,, isn't it???? Great work! God bless you!
I am so impressed! I loved every single second of this! The symbolism through the traffic lights...mind blowing!!! Brilliant work Bandhuka! I really do hope to see more work from you! Commented, Liked, Subscribed and will be sharing this on all of my SM accounts. Well done, and all the very best!

One single frame; one visible single actor; eighteen minutes to tell a story of a lifetime. What a gem! Great work.
Thank you so much Uncle!!!!

Short film yet deep lesson. Being content can avoid tangled messes in life. It’s simple as that.
Good job .
Never thought such a simple setting could produce such a fascinating storyline. Masterpiece indeed! 👍👍👍
Damn this left me speechless. This deserve more attention. Pls do more work like this
Extremely well executed plot....very effective and I love how the love in among the three of them(husband,wife,and child) was brought out amidst this life situation.....very touching that was....finally a note from Buddhism 'Thanhaya Jayathi Soko'....'love of material things will always lead to unhappiness'.....thank you for a great production.
