Kerry D @DerryK 1d Gajin is an unconventional "love story." In quotes because while yes there IS a boy-meets-girl storyline, but the heart of this movie is the love story between brothers. It’s been years since I’ve seen a movie that made me think about it the next day. I just kept going over the weight of the promises we make and how important it is to fulfill them. Gajin reminded me how much I love indie movies, and now want to rewatch a bunch of old ones from the 90s. Gajin is the opposite of all the meh movies and cookie cutter 8-episode series that have been crowding our queues and DVRs. It’s raw, moving, and hopeful. I saw it twice already and now you should too. See more Read all reviews
