Short description

I Am is an Indian drama and documentary anthology centered on the shared theme of fear. The film presents four interconnected stories based on real-life events, featuring characters who overlap across the different segments. These narratives explore a variety of social issues, including gay rights, child abuse, sperm donation, and the experiences of Kashmiri Pandits. Due to the use of six different languages, including Hindi, English, Kannada, Marathi, Bengali, and Kashmiri, the movie was released with subtitles.

Directed by Onir, the film was produced through a crowdfunding effort involving over 400 donors from across the globe, many of whom contributed via Facebook. The screenplay was written by Onir alongside Urmi Juvekar and Merle Kröger. The ensemble cast includes Rahul Bose, Nandita Das, Juhi Chawla Mehta, Sanjay Suri, Manisha Koirala, and Arjun Mathur.

The production is a joint venture between India and Japan with a total runtime of 106 minutes. It has received generally positive feedback from viewers, holding a 6.7 rating on IMDb based on 1,100 votes and a 6.5 rating on TMDB from 12 votes.

What's left behind the scenes

  • Initially, the story of domestic violence featured a female protagonist, but Onir ultimately rewrote the script and cast his regular actor, Sanjay Suri, in the role.
