Mono Melancholia, the first standalone experimental film by Hrisiraj Sengupta, folds together fragments of the director’s own past with images captured for no purpose beyond the quiet act of noticing. Some shots were never meant for a film. They began as personal keepsakes, and now sit beside moments filmed solely for this piece. Every frame was taken quickly on a phone, under the light that was there, without the interference of formal setups. The monologue came later, written as an echo to the images, shaped by the atmosphere of its non-original soundtrack. More than a narrative, it is an instinctive arrangement of memory and mood, a small attempt to make sense of what refuses to be explained.

Six stories. Six voices that have been silenced for years. This film is not just a record of experiences – it is a cry that cannot be silenced. Pamela Porwen, known for her uncompromising activist photography, this time gives space to the protagonists, whose lives have become entangled in politics. In a raw, almost intimate form, the film interweaves the narratives of people from different backgrounds – a transgender man, a victim of sexual violence, an activist convicted of helping someone have an abortion – to create a brutally real picture of a reality in which decisions about one’s own body are a luxury available to few. There are no aesthetic filters or glamorous shots here – instead, there are emotions so thick you could cut them with a knife. Silence is no longer an option. This is a film that shocks, teases, opens your eyes, and doesn’t let you forget.
