The Silent Honeymoon

It is the wedding night of a young married couple. At the end of the first conversation between the couple in an arranged marriage, the young wife undresses and then goes to the bathroom and closes the door. The young groom, who is alone in the bedroom, sees his wife's wedding sari undressed on the bed and takes it in his hands and slowly touches the sari. With it, the young groom gradually enters his dream world and in that dream he spends time lovingly with his homosexual lover. At the peak of their intimate relationship, suddenly the bride returns to the bedroom, breaking that beautiful moment. The heartache and mental pressure caused by the destruction of the world of dreams that he was happy with so far is secretly locked inside him by the young groom with great difficulty.

Directed by Didula Induwara, The Silent Honeymoon leans on a strong ensemble — Kusal Maduranga, Mashi Senanayake, Harsha Lakmal — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
