Our young protagonist, Benji is a gifted musician. His talent is further coupled with a love for his art, which ensures that even in the face of bullying and jeering by some of his more aggressive peers, he is always wholeheartedly present for his music. The school’s last concert of the year is coming up, a big night for all the young musicians, when the most terrible tragedy befalls Benji. <br><br>

The visual grammar of the film, the transitions, and hand-held shots, present a sophisticated endeavor in making it all come to life. When coupled with the manner sound is employed to bring juxtaposition and contrast, the message is pronounced seamlessly. As the title of the film gets realized in Benji’s unfolding nightmarish reality, reminding the viewer of a musical genius who had suffered the same fate, he finds himself distanced manifold from the one thing he truly loved. <br><br>
In his anger and frustration, however, could the same thing he feels painfully severed from truly be his savior? The film not only presents this question but also sees its answer through right till the very end.
