Why it's at number 67
The most intellectually ambitious Indian film of the 2010s, and it never condescends.
Three stories — a blind photographer, an ailing monk, a stockbroker with a new kidney — asking what remains when the parts are replaced.
Ship of Theseus sits in the 2010s alongside Gangs of Wasseypur and Masaan — a decade this canon treats as formative.
