Director: Ritesh Batra
Overview
An elderly divorcé receives a sum of money in the will of his university girlfriend's mother. Confused, he tries to discover the reason for her gift. Sense of an Ending is Ritesh Batra's (The Lunchbox) charming and intelligent adaptation of Julian Barnes' Booker Prize-winning novel of the same name.
