Memories in March

Delhi-based Arati Mishra believed her worst day was when she was divorced from her U.S.-based husband Suresh, until she got the news that her Kolkata-based son Siddhartha was killed in a vehicular accident. She travels to Kolkata, where her son's co-worker Sahana Coudhury meets her at the airport and accompanies her to the crematorium. After the cremation, she is taken to the guest-house where her son used to live, and told that he had been at a party, consumed considerable alcohol, insisted on driving, and met with a fatal accident. The next day, she accompanies Sahana to her son's place of employment, where she meets some of the staff and signs some documents, but ends up distressed when she is not permitted to take her son's belongings. Quite upset, she blames the office workers for letting her son drive under the influence, not realizing that more shocks are to come when she discovers that her son had a secret life.
