Similar to his penetrating previous work, <Nobel Thief>, this film is based on a true story and demonstrates director Suman Ghosh’s innate ability to create inspiring cinema. Shyamal, perhaps a retired government worker, discovers a streetlight in his village is turned on even during the day. Although a petty matter no one thinks much about, Shyamal believes that such waste can eventually lead to the loss of the entire country, and embarks on the journey to turn off the streetlight. Far from a simple problem he expected to solve easily, what awaits Shyamal is a long unexpected journey. Although Shyamal′s patience reaches its limit as he is passed around from one government office to another, he cannot be dissuaded from his task?not by his wife, not by his own issues, not by overdue rent. Shyamal refuses to give up and eventually ends up persuading the people around him to his argument. A trivial matter that reaches miraculous heights of significance, the turning on and off of all streetlights in Shyamal′s region finally becomes automatic. (PARK Jinhee)
