Derived by Filmi

How this number was made. We read every review and derive a 0–100 reading from each — including where the critic printed a number, which stays first on its row, because it’s theirs. The Filmi Score is the mean of 4 readings; 3 of those rows also carry the critic’s own rating, shown beside ours. Rubric v2, computed 7 Sep 2026. Any critic can ask us to remove a derived reading.

Synopsis

In the late 1980s in the Himalayas, a man's life is turned upside down by a series of mysterious fires destroying his fruit orchards. As he struggles to stop the outbreaks, the escalating mystery forces him to confront not only the truth behind the blazes but also the long-hidden secrets of his family and his own past.
