Acts of Kindness is an unsettling exploration of human manipulation set against the gritty backdrop of Kolkata's streets. The film, which is based on a true story, captures the slow descent of a homeless man entrapped by a seemingly benevolent couple. Their initial gestures of kindness quickly morph into a darker game of control, which is portrayed with an intensity that leaves you feeling a bit raw. The atmosphere is thick with tension, thanks to its stark cinematography and powerful performances that really bring out the desperation and vulnerability. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of discomfort to linger, making you reflect on the themes of trust and exploitation. It’s not your typical drama; it’s layered and haunting.
