Bare Voice

2025 · 138 min

A warm, music-soaked tribute that lingers like a favorite song, celebrating a genius while quietly mourning what history overlooks.

Directed by: Jaideep Verma
Genres: Documentary, Music
Starring: Kabir Suman, Shantanu Moitra, Srijit Mukherji

Overview: This documentary celebrates legendary Bengali singer-songwriter Kabir Suman and his enduring muse, Kolkata. While showcasing a formidable body of Suman's timeless songs, which also construct the narrative of his life, the film demonstrates why he might just be world's greatest unsung singer-songwriter and how easily genius too can slip through the cracks of history.
