The Art of Slow Cinema in a Fast World | Himjyoti Talukdar OWA EP42

What drives a filmmaker to tell stories that refuse to follow commercial formulas? In this episode, we sit down with acclaimed Assamese filmmaker Himjyoti Talukdar for an in-depth conversation about cinema, storytelling, artistic risk and the evolving film culture of Assam. From his early life and journey into filmmaking to the inspiration behind films like Calendar and Taarikh, Himjyoti shares the experiences, ideas and convictions that shape his work. We also discuss his distinctive slow-paced storytelling style, his exploration of mental health and social issues, and why he continues to create films that challenge audiences rather than simply entertain them. The conversation also explores his collaboration with veteran actor Arun Nath, the vision behind his trilogy culminating in Moromot Deuta, his favourite contemporary filmmakers, and his perspective on the changing movie-going audience in Assam. 👇 Drop your thoughts in the comments Credits: Guest: Himjyoti Talukdar Host: Abhilash Choudhury Shot by: Nazrul Ahmed, Bishal Gupta, Bedanta Kr Das Editing: Nazrul Ahmed Thumbnail designed by Shiva Kachari Indian Folky Melody BGM - Royalty free Music Download Link to video:    • Indian Folky Melody BGM - Royalty free Mus...   Connect with us:   / himjyotihere     / outlook_with_abhilash     / abhilashmusic     / _.nazrul_ahmed._     / bedantakrd     / shivakachari     / bishal__gupta_
