Ship of Theseus is more like an examination rather than an entertaining flick. That’s where it puts forth a crucial question in front of an Indian audience: are we being an audience willing to accept such films?

Story Of Ship Of Theseus

The film recounts three stories. The main plot is about a youthful lady who takes up photography after losing her sight due to cornea (disease). She gets a transplant and recaptures her vision. Rather than improving as a photographic artist, having the option to see overpowers her. She’s unable to see the goals of her life.
