Covid 19 surely sent shockwaves throughout the entire nation showing no mercy to anything. In comes a film based on that time showcasing the dark truths and unknown incidents which took place during the lockdown.
Bheed starring Rajkummar Rao involves the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic. A checkpoint established to keep residents from going back to their homes during the recently enforced curfew in a remote area of North India turns into a conflicting interest minefield.
The movie evokes unpleasant memories of the COVID era and strikes too close to home. Set in a Black and White tone, the film showcases pain and grief in every color.
Bheed provides an honest, although occasionally unsettling, look at the ways in which prejudice and social class hierarchies may impact individuals during times of crisis. It’s an uncommon COVID-19 pandemic drama that avoids crudely taking advantage of this horrific outbreak.
The film also includes Bhumi Pednekar, Pankaj Kapur, Ashutosh Rana, Dia Mirza and Kritika Kamra in prominent rules. If you want to see an eye opener and relive the brutality of Covid 19, well this well directed film is the way to go this weekend. Bheed is currently streaming on Netflix.
