Leonardo N @Anhur 23h Asura (2012) is more than a tale of survival; it is a profound exploration of morality and redemption. By portraying a child born into scarcity and guided back toward humanity through compassion, the film delivers a powerful message about the resilience of the human spirit. Disturbing yet deeply moving, Asura stands as a testament to the enduring relevance of empathy in a world often defined by struggle.

Thru kindness and violence, he learns what it means to be human himself. Combining CGI with traditional backgrounds, Asura embeds the viewer in an urban hellscape in a visually intense story. I loved the portrayal of moral decay and societal collapse with gritty and oppressive imagery. Highly recommended if you're okay with existential despair. Which I am.
