Ship of Theseus
Directed by Anand Gandhi2h 23m2012
Three stories about persons forced to think about the ethics and moral issues raised by medical advances.
Our read: Ship of Theseus (2012) reads as a sombre, slow-burn, grounded drama entry — gentle in intensity, intimate in scope, measured in temperature, ambivalent in outlook, with a strong directorial signature.
Sombre, slow-burn, gentle drama, grounded in texture. Ambivalent, intimate, measured.
