Bridge (2020)

Official Selection, Indian Panorama, International Film Festival of India (IFFI), 2019 As the dark deep night enveloped the cityscape, Vinod the taxi driver-cum-pimp was driving across the streets of Mumbai, when he finds a young girl. On the other hands, Rajjo, a prostitute of early thirties irks with the presence of the girl as it is harming her nightly earnings. After a feisty conversation, they end with a settlement to locate the young girl's place of stay and her family whereabouts. An evil acquaintance of Vinod, Pawan, tries to snatch the girl from them for a dreadful intention. Rajjo finds his intention and resists him to take the girl from the car. The mute girl shows them a paper cutting of a bridge near the well-known Koliwada settlement. All of them proceed for that direction. The search turns futile when the girl says nothing, particularly about her house. Vinod and Rajjo find it very tiring and decide to wait for the morning. They park their taxi on the beachside. The morning comes and Vinod realises that the girl is missing from the cab. He wakes up Rajjo and both of them look for that little girl frantically. There is no trace of that girl whatsoever. After a few months, Vinod sees that young girl again. Crossin g a busy street alone, he stops the car at once and follows her to a slum. Vinod speculates something impious but the final revelation initiates a special kind of friendship.
