To close out the year, we list down our top 10 films of 2021—counting down from 10 to 1.
Our lists span from a Zoom movie to a stellar Malayalam New Wave title, and from a harrowing animated documentary to an impossible-to-describe fantasy epic.
Along the way, we also point out why lists such as this are so arbitrary, and how long we should ideally wait before discussing the best films of 2021.
And for those looking for deeper appreciation, listen to full episodes of some of the titles mentioned in the episode here: The Dig, The Disciple, Geeli Pucchi, The Green Knight, Madhyantar, Nayattu, and Sardar Udham.
