They say a picture is worth a thousand words. But can all pictures be that deep? Today, everyone has a phone with a camera. But not everyone can click a picture that speaks a thousand words. That is where professional photographers come in. While most photographers take time in setting up their subject and its surroundings, not everyone has that luxury. Photojournalists are professional photographers who do not enjoy the luxury of time and yet make their pictures tell a story. Vikram Patwardhan’s latest Marathi film, Frame, narrates the journey of two photojournalists who are at very different stages of their careers and carry different ideologies.

This movie is not your regular commercial film with Mirch Masala. You must have seen several films focused on Indian newsrooms, but this one is viewed through the lens of the photography department at a news organisation. Patwardhan avoids the sensationalising of newsrooms that is so often seen in cinema and is instead closer to the reality of such office spaces.

In the beginning, it feels like what kind of story can you even make about photojournalists, but the makers surprise you as everything comes together at the climax, making you wonder about the core dilemma the film tries to address.
