Something Like an Autobiography (2023). 1h 22m

“Watched a Farooki movie after a long time. Itu0026#39;s about a celebrity coupleu0026#39;s journey to a delayed parenthood. In Bangladeshi society, couples are expected to multiply as soon as they are married. So after a decade of marriage, the celeb couple faces frowning from almost everyone for not producing a child yet.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe journey to a delayed parenthood starts. It is difficult to be a parent, and at later age and if so much is expected from a pair of people. Farhan and Tithy go through a lot of emotions and challenges to embrace their journey.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe movie was excellent in portraying real life Dhaka. The bustling was always in the background, this is the trademark of Farooki-you will notice the absence of filters in his shots, in the tension of the movie. The to-bo-mother is shown unfiltered, her leftover kajol displayed without making it u0026quot;sexyu0026quot; (as female leads are always portrayed in most movies, must look charming no matter what the situation is). I loved that.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI loved that the movie brought out the social tension, the religious tension around being a couple and not parents. Itu0026#39;s almost looked upon as a sin.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWatch this 90 minute movie any time to feel a little emotional, a little inspired, and admire a lot-our Farooki and Tisha.”
