“Equal”
The story
ARASI, an emerging Carnatic singer. AZHAGHU, a freelance software engineer. Their six-year-old daughter, BHOOMI. On a post-pandemic day under curfew, Arasi prepares for her long-awaited concert. Azhaghu faces an important job interview. Bhoomi has an online school event. Azhaghu calls his parents, THILLAI and MOHANA for support. The family's everyday life unfolds the poetic irony of a perpetual mindset, utterly convinced of its own hierarchy, then turns around and calls it EQUAL.
