A hilarious love story, from the Academy Award® winning director of Koyla, exploring marriage and retirement with humour and warmth. Frustrated with the apathy of his unruly students, Joseph suddenly retires from his job as a school teacher. But he is not a man content to spend the autumn of his life in relatively uneventful peace, irritable and full of mischievous energy he embarks on a plan to become a student of life. Empties is an intelligent, emotionally engaging comedy about a man who refuses to accept that old age is empty of love, meaning and value.
