i was happy for a moment, then he went back. That made no sense.
There is this film called tulpan, I guess thats the name. I Saw the film last night, what a coinsidence it was a full moon.
Sand and wind in this film was a charector in itself. it covers a family in remote settlement. this movie is not the point of this article, but you need to understand the context.
A man couldn’t find a wife, “no wife, no sheep” his boss said. having no wife, limits your professional prospects too, appraently. I am not aware of economics, behind depending on a boss for sheep gazing. He is living with his sisters family, currently. Relation between him and his sister husbend is never straight. there are not many women in the village eaither, his options are limited too. So our protagonist is a homely man, dream to settle down with a wife, comfort and whole sky to gaze at. Constant fighting with his brother in law and no progress. After few attempts to leave the house, movie climax promise us that he may do it realizing there may be no future in the hut.
Leaving his cape behind with one of his nephiu. overdrawing a flower on his past dreams, in sentiment declaring aspirational bankrupcy. As the family pack for new settlement. protagonist leave empty minded, free and silent. Finally! i thought. i was bewildered when he asked to stop the jeeptracker. and he returnes to the same family, Anti-climatic it was. Considering what he finds comfort in, i should be that suprising. This Movie means no
tragedy or happiness, its just a moment in someones life. who knows things may change in new settlement, change in place do that.
As i am returning from the film. misjudging the rock’s edge, turning my wheel little too left. There i was in the middle of the crossway, its midnight and empty. As i stand up i realized its full moon and how bright as a day it was. the tracks covered with tree on eaither side, leaving them in shade. the roundabout kinda thing was only thing thats lit by moon, and it was a stage. Couldn’t help my self to get on the bike again. I stood there looking around, thinging about stuff. Usually if nothing there is atleast the sounds of wheel turning, now its silent.
I needed no moon nor the silence, that day. it felt uncalled for. How used, moon must feel. after a while its just a white ball in the sky. There is this constant back of the head, i need to go somewhere, somewhere i have to be. That crossroad was not enough, I had to end that cycle someplace.
That protagonist made sense for a bit there, or its just another intrusive thought i need to fight.
