Why does silence feel uncomfortable in films today?

Why do we feel restless during slow scenes, long pauses, and quiet moments — moments that once defined the beauty of cinema?

In this episode of Cinema & Society, I’m not trying to explain cinema.
I’m trying to understand us.

From the stillness of films like October, Masaan, and Lootera
to today’s swipe culture shaped by reels and short-form content,
this video explores how our relationship with patience, silence, and storytelling has changed.

This is a personal reflection on:

Why we struggle to sit through slow cinema

How swipe culture has reshaped our attention span

The dilemma filmmakers face between story and survival

And how this restlessness is spilling into our real lives — relationships, conversations, and responsibility

This is not a film review.
This is not a lecture.

It’s a quiet conversation.

Because maybe cinema isn’t getting boring.
Maybe it’s just holding up a mirror.
