Concept of a short film - never worked on it though.

COMPROMISE:
Glimpses of the city.


Introduction:

Narration:
This is my city. The city of joy, Kolkata. Here, smiles of sorrow and tears of joy is an accepted truth. A truth that prevails in each and every heart that struggles to break free. A cheap mentality, lots of determination and an undaunted spirit is what you need to survive here. Here Mukherjee's and Banerjee's, Dutta's and Gupta's, Rahman's and Verma's all fight each and everyday to quench the thirst of humanity. They are all into different lines of duty, some in the private sector, some in a more laid back government sector. However there is one particular bond that binds each and every soul together. That bond is what we call 'compromise'.

Character entry:
Subhojit >> entry from 'L', lights a smoke.
Indranil >> exiting main entrance of the house freezes while doing a pronaam, Ashfaque >> climbs into an auto looks at his phone.

Video freezes when narration starts. Video starts on second character entry but once again freezes when narration starts.

Narration:
This is Subhojit Gupta. A college going youth still living off his father's income. Football is his first love, like many in Bengal, english heavy metal songs is a close second, unlike any in Bengal . His journey begins from Bhawanipore.

Meet Indranil Banerjee. He hails from the same kind of middle class family as Subhojits' but is categorised as a Brahmin. He is a talented violinist and guitarist. Still college going and pennyless. He resides at Bowbazar.

Say hello to Ashfaque Raza. Doesn't have any special talents but is an avid collector of pornographic MMS clips. Mr. Raza had to bunk college to meet his friends and has to travel all the way from Rippon Street.

Lets embark on a journey into their minds and witness the truth behind a kolkatan's thoughts. Lets watch them compromise!
