lust stories (2018)

Four very different directors explore four very different shades of lust in Lust Stories, though the common ground in each is the theme of female desire, as it attempts to cut through the straitjackets of morality, patriarchy and class.

The anthology begins with Anurag Kashyap's film, where in the very first scene, the protagonist Kalindi (Radhika Apte) is leaning out of a cab window, as it zips down the road. She's carefree, liberated, and en-route to a one-night-stand. Next to her is the visibly younger and visibly nervous Tejas (Akash Thosar). Once they’re in his room, he tries to keep up with her - intellectually and sexually - as she mocks his Chetan Bhagat book collection and teases him about his lack of sexual experience. She doesn't just take charge in bed, but also his virginity.
