Five Star

Short film | 2023

Five Star is a story about a single night incident involving two students living in Ahmedabad.  Abhay and Adhil get into a complicated situation when the person delivering their grocery order comes with two policemen at midnight. As both of them are trying to make a sense of the situation, more layers of stereotyping, discrimination and corruption unfold. Through the incident, we see the two malayali students navigate a seemingly tense scenario with the policemen to come to a conclusion about the delivery man whose intentions are brought to question from the get go. A story that appears to unfold itself within a matter of a few minutes at midnight outside a house, Five Star showcases the longstanding behavioural exploitation of people from different regions outside Ahmedabad.
