“What is life? The balance of the five elements. What is death? Their disbalance.” - I am glad that there are authors in India who want to tell the local life stories the way the audience is used to with European films, for example – realistically. Without colorful flourish, embellishments, Indian dances or the endless local jolly music. Still, it took a while before I got used to the Fly Away Solo. Nevertheless, the beautiful shots of the apparently nicer part of India (not a single piece of garbage in sight) and the final fusion of two, until then very different, human stories, really made me happy. This is also what life can be.
