The Case Is Closed

Directed by Mrinal Sen
The case is closed.

​A pre-teenager servant boy dies of carbon monoxide poisoning on a cold winter night in the kitchen. The happy household is suddenly thrown into a psychological trauma. Torn between a sense of guilt and fear of a police case and consequently scandal, the employer and his wife expose their petty, hypocritical selves.
