Runanubandha - The He Without Him

Runanubandha, spiritually, refers to body’s memory – both genetic and memory of intimate physical connect. It is this memory which is said to bind a parent and a child, a husband and a wife or any other intimate relationships. The film explores Shatarupa’s search for her father in Kolkata. She finds the voice of her father in a young man. The paternal traits draw her towards him, but she finds herself trapped elsewhere between emotional complexities and simplicity. The film also draws a parallel with Hindu mythological tale of Lord Brahma, who was attracted to his own daughter Shatarupa

Directed by Amartya Bhattacharyya, Runanubandha - The He Without Him leans on a strong ensemble — Priyanka Ghosh Roy, Amartya Bhattacharyya, Swastik Choudhury — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2018.
