Synopsis

The Conundrum being, Do I live life my way or do I live life their way? The start of a new dawn finds David Yohannes Reeves asking himself this very question. It is a situation that requires some thought. Day to day life often thrusts us into precarious positions; that is confrontations with unpleasant despicable people, encountering behaviour that is selfish or deliberately harmful. No matter how seemingly inconsequential and trivial this negative act is, it should be responded too. Surely? But then again, probably not. Is it really worth exacerbating this awkward and possibly stressful situation further that it might escalate into full-blown violence? Again, probably not. But never to act to correct what is wrong? Is that right too? This is the conundrum. The film is the statement. Be concerned; be concerned by a man wearing fucking antlers.

Synopsis

Madhabilata is a personal film, a journey to touch the wave of silence between me and my biological mother. An intricate embroidery of desire, suffering, denial and ‘looking back’. A painful hide 'n' seek game between me and my mother, between 'real' and 'unreal','self' and 'other' .
