Mostly British Film Fest: Namdev Bhau “In Search of Silence”

Namdev Bhau, a 65-year-old chauffeur, can no longer take the relentless noise of Mumbai. Since he cannot find peace at home either he packs a bag and sets off to a fabled retreat deep in the Himalayas, hoping to find peace at last. On the way, an exasperating, chatty 12-year-old boy decides to tag along. This gently paced story, directed by Dar Gai, marries exquisite scenery and hilariously mismatched travel partners into a gently paced road film that surprises with its big laughs and sudden depths–a radiant film that finds peace inside the vibration of life and beauty inside the heartbeat of existence.
