Namdev Bhau - In Search of Silence movie review: A lyrical experience with unschooled performances

Firstpost  

Namdev Bhau is a 60-something chauffeur in Mumbai. Namdev Bhau is not an actor, and yet he plays the protagonist in this eponymously named Hindi-Marathi film. Namdev packs a small bag, folds away a print out about the quietest places in the country and he sets off on a journey without saying a word to his nagging wife, who talks non-stop. Namdev Bhau’s organic and unschooled performance and Dar Gai’s gentle observation of this man who reveals so much while saying so little are the film’s soul. Namdev Bhau: In Search of Silence will resonate with residents of big cities who endure daily sensory overload.
