Tales With A Lid – (Short Film)

Xaphoror Kotha – (Assami)

Excruciating Films presents Short Film Tales With A Lid (Xaphoror Kothaa)

Diseases are an inescapable part of life. Minor-major problems continue to follow us throughout our lives. Sometimes we hesitate with shame or dread and intend to hide some diseases which are not a thing to be kept secretive and one day they can end our life. In ‘Tales with a Lid’, Sandhya’s irregular periods can be a symptom of PCOD (Polycystic Ovarian Disease) which is very terrible at some point and Soumik’s phimosis problem has made him ashamed. Soumik has hidden this for fear of questioning his so-called manhood and Sandhya has been ignoring the disease for a long time. But at a time, they realize that there is no other option except to show it to the doctor. We see them both in the hospital at the same time taking their appointments with the doctor hesitantly.
