The Broken Table (2023)

Rule No One

Its a poignant tale about care giver and her Alzheimer patient.

Amazing short film, controlled story telling. Naseruddin shah, rasika duggal playing their part well as patient and caretaker to perfection. In less than 25 minutes One gets a birds eyeview of a life of a patient with Alzheimer and the caretaker.

Reminds me of my grandmother who had it. She used to forget people, suddenly demanded to know who they were and what they were doing there. Sometimes remembered old things was nostalgic, angry and would go through the entire emotion roller-coaster.

This is about all that and more, but wait for the twist.

Who takes care of who.
