Watch: In short film ‘The Job’, it’s no ordinary day at work

In Siddharth Sinha’s The Job, a French expat who cannot differentiate reality from imagination tries hard to remain employed.

A young woman (Kalki Koechlin) is visibly nervous as she sits at her desk in a typically colourless and drab corporate office. Reeling under pressing deadlines, a swelling credit card bill and traumatic memories of a road accident, she struggles to cope with her anxieties by conjuring up sounds and images, till her mind is unable to untangle real occurrences from imagined horrors.
