Pantry of Memories

Pantry of Memories is a short film, about a chef Arya, going through an emotional journey to rediscover her lost passion. This film is jointly produced by Little Lizard Productions and Akiatta Productions.

Arya, an experienced chef, has lost her drive & passion for food. Struggling to find emotional balance, one day she stumbles upon an eccentric musician with whom she talks about music, food and its connection with memories, inspiring her to see things in a new light. With this new perspective, Arya recollects and interacts with a memory of her father that has been haunting her for some time. Revisiting some of the long-forgotten moments, she finds comfort in being able to vent out her pent-up emotions. Finding closure and balance, Arya manages to summon the strength to break away from the monotony and make her way towards a new beginning.

"The story of Arya is my story. And it is everyone’s story. I believe with all my heart that this is a story that needs to be told, for all the people haunted by their inner demons. That is the driving force behind this film, and I intend to put my utmost to say it in the best manner possible." - Akash (Writer/Director)
