30 Days of Autumn
Sudipto Roy
India. 2024. 45 min

An ambitious young woman on a month-long government assignment in rural Bengal grapples with loneliness while forming a complex bond with her teenage house help. As his innocent crush and aspirations clash with the impermanence of their relationship, their brief connection leaves her profoundly changed.

An Intimate Indie Gem Exploring Love, Loss, and Longing through a Tagorean Lens.
30 Days of Autumn is a poignant and lyrical indie film written and directed by acclaimed filmmaker Sudipto Roy (Kia and Cosmos, Tasher Ghawr)
Inspired by Rabindranath Tagore’s classic short story Postmaster, 30 Days of Autumn is a quiet yet powerful meditation on human connection, impermanence, and the unspoken emotions that bind us. With a visual and emotional language rooted in the traditions of independent cinema, the film traces the delicate relationship between a transient visitor and a village boy—two lives brought together by chance, and pulled apart by circumstance.
